still blooming

Hi there friends, Just wanted to post a photo of my morning glories. They were slow to start blooming and now are late bloomers. They are such a brilliant blue. I just love them. Do you have any flowers that are still blooming in your gardens?

    My morning glories just started blooming recently, too. And I got them planted fairly early this year, they came right up and I was a bit surprised when it took so long. I thought maybe they didn't like the heat and humidity this year.

    Lael, It is such a weird summer. Lots of rain and humidity. Lots of my plants did not do well because of all the rain. I only had to water my potted plants a few time. I am actually looking forward to winter this year due to this miserable summer we have had...
    Wishing you a blessed Saturday... hugs

When life is hard....

I'm not sure how I can love someone who continues to treat me poorly. How long does a mother go on loving and hurting for a child who doesn't want the same thing? How many times can we fight and not give up. She has given up and moved out. My heart breaks...

How did I get this old?

I was editing some wedding photos today and I decided to crop this photo. Upon reflection on this photo I can't believe how old I've become. How did this happen? Years of work, play, family, and friends have made the time fly by. I feel the same as I did 25 years ago. I don't feel like I've changed. But when looking at the photo I see my physical appearance has changed. A few wrinkles and sags that didn't use to be there. A few gray hairs.... But as I look at this photo I am also seeing a woman who would not go back to those younger years. A woman who is content with who she is. No need to impress anyone except MYSELF. My husband of 26 years loves me for who I am on the inside.... Outside appearances change over the years.. I'm know the inside has changed as well. I hope my inside(heart) has changed for the better. I hope to have more patience, tolerance, love, grace, and kindness in my heart. All the attributes a Christian woman yearns for. Over the years I...
