April Showers...

Springtime is always a little [okay, a lot] crazy here.  We are so anxious for it to come after such a long Winter.  It gets warm, the snow melts, we think Spring has come, and then it snows on us again. 

 It happened on Wednesday night.  

Lots of wet and heavy snow.

BUT!

I am grateful for small miracles...

promises, if you will...

That warm weather will eventually come...

There are signs of life in my garden!

So, even though the forecast is for more of the

WHITE STUFF

over the next few days...

I know what will be hiding underneath...

Maybe we should say,

"April snowstorms bring May flowers"

?

Gram

This lovely young lady turned 93 yesterday

I am so grateful to have been blessed with such a wonderful "Gram"

It's no wonder I chose that name for my grandchildren to call me.

I have learned so much from her of kindness and love and service.

We celebrated with lunch, cake and beautiful music.

Love her

A Whole List Full!

Today I am grateful for:

A very enjoyable visit with a delightful woman as I drove her to her appointment at Tom Baker

Matt's acceptance to Waterloo School of Optometry

Crunchy vegetables

Another enjoyable visit with a younger delightful woman (Elizabeth) as I drove her to and from school.  

Sam calling to say, "Me like upcakes"

A temperature above 0 degrees outside

The promise of Spring...and then Summer...which means more HIKING!
