…this would totally be an awesome album cover! 😉 How cool are they?
Loving the sunshine this morning, even though it is single digits outside. We’re headed for a balmy 50 degrees F on Saturday, and I’m positively giddy at the thought.
May you all be stars today, may ice not form on your feet, and may the thoughts of Spring warm your heart. Slainte, Lisa
There are many things I love about these pictures…
The time spent together, daddy & daughter…
The sparkling, ever-changing, ever-sonorous ocean…
The firm sand under our feet…
The bluest of blue skies…
God ever-present, ever-loving throughout it all. Have a blessed day, Lisa
Beauty, form, structure may fade…
but memories and love lasts. Slainte, Lisa
July Tree on St. Kitts
This tree is blooming, and blooming beautifully. Although it is just a tree, it is not worrying about tomorrow, or yesterday, just blooming now. The tree of course benefits by not having a brain, and we are indeed blessed to be able to think and decide, to feel and to imagine. All of these are great gifts from God, as we are made in His image. But He doesn’t want us to worry…easier said than done, right? As a mom, I tend to think ahead and try to micromanage, plan, prevent. But is this worrying helping anything? Absolutely not. That’s why I love this quote by Corrie Ten Boom:
“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.”
So for this moment, I am going to try to just be, to just bloom. Have a beautiful day! Slainte, Lisa
Brimstone Hill Fortress, built in the early 1700’s on St. Kitts. An amazingly-preserved fort with 7 foot thick walls.
We made it, one step at a time, about 100 steps, and stopped…turned…looked….aaahhh! Totally worth it. Whatever staircase is facing you today, don’t think too much about how big it is, or how many steps you have to go. Just take that first step, then another, then rest awhile, and continue. You will reach the top eventually; there’s no rush. And then the view from the top….aaahhh! 🙂 Slainte, Lisa
