I too appreciate the gift of sight and often find myself trying to remember in great detail the things that I am able to see. I don't want to forget.

You've made me lonely for Spring in the beautiful Midwest where I grew up, and I wanted to pack my bag and head that way! :-) I love those giant nylon tulips too, that's what I need for my yard, tulips don't do well here, our summers are to hot and winters don't get cold enough for the bulbs to hibernate. <br /><br />I am delighted that your daughter will be returning to Topeka for the dental position, and your son has a study program lined up at Oxford. Wow! Nothing cheers a mother's heart like good things happening for her kids! I loved the whole tone of this post, truly joyful about life, and that is the essence of being thankful for what you have. Thank you so much for sharing with us at TToT, I hope the rest of your week continues to be blessed! :-)Josie Two Shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18388032819905416258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7330030209576515508.post-86671574906011257922017-04-19T06:17:28.301-05:002017-04-19T06:17:28.301-05:00Your photos, as always are amazing.

When our kids are happy and doing well, we are, too. The feeling that winter is over, the school year will finally end and we made it through another of both is a familiar one to me.

Having winter be over is surely the best of times.Clark Farleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03606902779389446947noreply@blogger.com
