Surrounded by Grace

Remember those who:

• don’t know how to navigate our world as freely as the rest of us…
• are bothered by lights, sound and everyday noise that we can filter out…
• struggle daily to live in a world that doesn’t understand…
• live a life most often being misunderstood…

• And, most importantly, remember:
• they bring joy to those of us who care for them…

Thank you!  for being:

• patient
• kind
• loving
• to my special child!

As he is getting dressed today…

Christopher:  “Where is the tag?”

Dad:  “What tag?”

Christopher:  “the tag on my socks?”

LOL

He was trying to find out which way his socks go to fit correctly!

…to everyone.  The altar is always so peaceful and beautiful, but especially today…

Look who we saw on our deck early this morning while we were having breakfast… The kids were fascinated watching him…

are everywhere!  Views from our front yard…

Yes, those are earthworms!  He has some new “friends”!

Thanks to Dawn for sharing this:

You Are Blooming Flowers

You are an optimistic person by nature. In even the darkest times, you are hopeful about the future. You feel truly blessed in life and can sometimes be overwhelmed with emotions. You have an artist’s eye. You are always looking for beauty in the mundane. You have a good sense of aesthetics, especially when it comes to shapes and color.

We are driving down the road today after church, it is dusk. Christopher looks at the kids at the park, and says, “That is just not possible!”

Spotted in our backyard today…

Our very wooded backyard provides a great home for our little friends.  We have a feeder on our upper deck that is a gathering place for a variety of birds.  Steve took these wonderful photos today.  He used our Canon Rebel Digital.
