Your pictures as well as your reflections just get better and better! I always look forward to your blog. I was choked up with a lump in my throat as I read your insight into the car accident. And I had tears in my eyes as I looked at the beautiful, colorful display of flowers and dipped towels. Made my day!
I anxiously open each one of your neat fresh ideas to see what blessings you have to share for the day. Wow! I love them all.
Happy to hear of Gods preparation and protection in the whole incident. Fun project, I need to come up with some more for Calvin.
