A Day can't start bad when you wake to see this blooming on your dining room table How does magic like this happen over night? |
gather together some Valentine Day things together in one spot |
A favorite purchase from Glory Be in Occoquan, Virginia Simple and eloquent |
then TODAY I captured the dancing lights in the living room. The glass hurricane has caught the winter's sun on just right sunny days and sparkled light prisms all the way around the room. I would walk through and see them and them get busy "Doing" and come back to take a picture and then it would be too late and they were gone. So for days I have hunted the sparkles and either I was not home at the right time or just missed them somehow- or cloudy overcast mornings kept the magic from happening. But today--- it was here.... Too bad you really can't capture all the rainbow hues set on the walls and furniture. But, at least I have proof that it isn't "my imagination". |
you can see a little of the color here |
And then a dear friend stood at the classroom door holding tulips, card and "Treats" |
Bonnie has always had "heart love" and her creative talents were lent to paper and fabric |
Valentine greetings have eternal generosity attached with the verse from 1 John 4:9-11 |
gorgeous tulips in a tin pitcher...... isn't it wonderful when friends can give you tin and know it warms your heart? |
the tale and story of how the factory that made the tin was "her family" and Kreamer means something very personal now |
And two heart cards are added to my collection - the gift of a friend who sees hearts as the Big Picture story of all that Jesus has done and continues to do in her life. And a reminder to me- no matter what-- tell the metanarrative story even on snapshot days of dancing light mosaic. |
Your amarlyis is beautiful! Mine is one day away from blooming (we must have planted at the same time). I thought it might bloom on St. Valentine's Day, but I am still waiting.
