col·or    noun 

     1. the quality of an object or substance with respect to LIGHT reflected by the object.
Today Mom and I went flower shopping.
The nursery was unbelievably stunning.
All I could think of was, "Thank-you God for color...for your delightful creativity
...and for time with my Mom..."
"Giving thanks awakens me to a God giving Himself."

MOTHER'S DAY 2012

In a blog I love to read, A Holy Experience (see my Blog List to the right), we were given the chance to write something about our mothers and post it through the 1,000 Moms Project that will help mothers and children in Haiti.  This is what I wrote:


"My mother...Patricia...the gifts she has given me are endless. She taught me to love beautiful things like flowers, music, books, and most importantly, Jesus Christ. She is a woman of prayer, of faith, of generosity and grace. Her smile lights up her face and brightens anyone's day. On Mother's Day 2012, I thank God for my mom - a gracious, beautiful woman of God."

I am deeply thankful for my mom. 
Happy Mother's Day

This Spring I spent 2 weeks in Colorado with Beth & Tanner, Lissa & Josh, Monica and our two beautiful grandaughters: Tyler and Molly. For Easter, Tyler and I planted a Grace Garden (an idea I got from the blog "A Holy Experience"). Enjoy.
