HAPPY SPRING!
Signs of Spring
My birdhouse, after 18 months of sitting empty, has finally had a prospective house hunter come by! I only got this one shot and it's a little blurry because I took it through the window, but I'm so excited! I hope she comes back!
And here's a few early spring photos of my potted pansies...

Birthday Flowers
Yesterday was my birthday and my husband gave me these gorgeous roses. They reminded me that spring is just around the corner. Can't wait! : )
It is Easy to Love Him When...
"It is easy to love Him when the blue is in the sky,
When the summer winds are blowing, and we smell
the roses nigh;
There is little effort needed to obey His precious will
when it leads through flower-decked valley, or over sun-kissed hill.
It is when the rain is falling, or the mist hangs in the air,
When the road is dark and rugged, and the wind no longer fair,
When the rosy dawn has settled in a shadowland of gray,
That we find it hard to trust Him, and are slower to obey.
It is easy to trust Him when the singing birds have come,
and their songs of praise are echoed in our heart and in our home;
But it's when we miss the music, and the days are dull and drear,
That we need a faith triumphant over every doubt and fear.
And our blessed Lord will give it; what we lack He will supply;
Let us ask in faith believing - on His promises rely;
He will ever be our Leader, whether smooth or rough the way,
And will prove Himself sufficient for the needs of every day."
George McDonald (1824-1905)

Flowers and Teacups
It's been cold and rainy in my neck of the woods and I'm really missing my flower garden. I found these beautiful pictures online of flowers set in teacups and they brightened by day. So pretty. : )
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Everyone!
This time of year gets a little slow in the garden and I haven't had a lot of inspiration for blog posts lately, but I'm happy you are all here and hopefully I will be posting more with the coming of spring. : )
Meanwhile feel free to visit my book blog, where I try to post more regularly...Thoughts on Books
