Sunshine is out!

It's far too beautiful outside to spend the day inside on the computer. I'm heading outside to enjoy the sunshine now, but I'll leave you with this photo of the flowers in our backyard.

Hope that you're having a lovely weekend!

"People travel to wonder at the height of the mountains, at the huge waves of the seas, at the long course of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars, and yet they pass by themselves without wondering."
~ St. Augustine

            How easy it is to forget that waking up each morning is a miracle, that each time my heart beats it's a gift. I'm thankful for life, thankful that I can believe in a God who is far bigger than I can comprehend, and that He gives me life each day and the freedom to choose how I live my life. Life is fragile, and life is full of beauty, even in this world of pain there are a million reminders of how awesome God is!
