Thankful today...for beauty

Numbering some gifts
on a beautiful almost-spring day...

• Hiking along an ancient creek
(with dearly loved ones)





• Cooking with Jesse and Jessica...


• Close friends crowded around a table
filled with good things...

• Words that bring conviction...
• Enough...
• And in my backyard...a pear tree,
blooming white...a promise of spring...




• And bright bits of yellow...


• And lush, soft green...


• A bright new rug, welcoming at the back door...


• Cut flowering branches,
bringing spring indoors...



...wishing you a grace-filled almost-spring day...
