The garden is growing.......




 
Wow!  the background is really goofy today.....of well you'll get the drift of what the blocks look like.  It must have something to do with it being a fine detailed close up shot.  You'd think I knew something about this...NOT! LOL!!!!!
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
My garden has many, many sweet smelling flowers.......
 
 
 

 
 
 
And many of my feathered friends.......and they all have a song to sing, because they have happy hearts!
 
 

 
 
 
This is how my garden is growing, but there is much more to come.
 
Tonight a little quilt group which I am a part of is meeting, and I have that to look forward to.  Because it is small it is quite intimate, and besides good food we have great sharing of not only quilting, but the kind of conversation that feeds the soul.....it was there that my friend Trudy shared with us about having a surrender box.  A place to put all of those worries and concerns to big for us to handle......I have found myself doing this over and over again, and it has helped me to be much more light hearted and to have greater peace.
