Wonderful quote…and pictures! :heartbeat:
glad your day was a good one …soon your fella will be back with you…have a nice weekend.
That is a great picture of your son.
beautiful pics. I really liked the big radish one
The radishes are just gorgeous! I have 2 (count them two!) strawberries right now that are almost ripe. I also have 2 (count them duex) tomatoes going in a pot too. Woo hoo!
Your children look so earthly and free!
Those pictures are stunning.
The picture of the radishes makes my mouth water.
I loved the ‘Animal Parable’, or whatever it’s called, you have linked in your other post. Had my hubby read it, and he got teary eyed. Beautiful.
P.S. I certainly hope that ‘Rush Limbaugh is hot’ is the lie……
Wow, those pics are amazing!! I am taking it that you are loving the clarity of the Rebel? And I will have to do that quiz tomorrow. Not enough brain cells left to do it tonight.
Breathtaking pics! lovely radishs!
I love to print the radish prints for posters in my kitchen! Yum! xoxo
I love the pictures. And I guessed the lie: You’re not tired at all! Blessings abound
Pit bulls get such a bad rep because of how some people choose to raise them. It’s sad. We have a pit bull named Shirley that we got as a puppy when our oldest son was 2. She’s almost 5 and the most lovable well behaved dog I’ve ever known. She behaves a million times better than my shih-tzu. Now that dog is on his last chances of continuing on in our family!! He drives me nuts. It just makes me sad that there are so many people that are afraid of pit bulls. It depends on how the are raised. If you want a dog to bite people or other aniamls and you teach them that from day 1, that is how they will behave. If they never see that type of behavior and are raised as a member of your family, they will behave like one. Not going anywhere with this, I guess. You wouldn’t be afraid of my dog. She would just lay on your feet and keep them warm and fall asleep.
I love the pic of Jesse. And I :heartbeat: the dalai lama quote! I agree w/ the previous poster concerning pit bulls.. Ive never known a mean one unless they were abused, neglected, or trained to be mean.
oh and Julie- Ive always thought you are hot!
:shysmile:
Wennie is looking at the radish and saying “APPLE!” Being the resident farming person I know, can you trim back pumpkin plants?
**SMOOCH**
As usual….All of your photos are beautiful!!! …. but the last, reminds me of the Karate Kid Movie from back in the day
LOVE IT!
:heartbeat:
K~
Well, OKAY!
Has your chocolate arrived yet?
The flappy thing under your (my) arm is called a… HiHelen! As in, old ladies waving to each other, arms flapping, and calling out, “Hi, Helen!”
What can I say. My sisters are very creative.
