Oh how I miss my summer flowers

I was looking thru all my photos I had taken this year. I came across quite a few that made me sad that summer is behind us now. My flower beds have been put to rest until spring. The leaves that have fallen from the trees replace the lush green grass of summer. My how fast time flies. It seems just like yesterday when I was nursing my sprouting seedlings in my greenhouse and changing the litter for my newly hatched baby chicks. The older I get the faster time seems to fly. I sometimes feel like I am on a merry go round that keeps going faster and faster and I can't make it stop so I can get off. Life has a way of getting away from us. Along with my flowers my body is at rest for the season. No bending down to tend the garden, no lawn to mow, no baby chicks to tend to. I will take the rest for now and renew my mind, body, and spirit. I have been blessed with a loving husband, and family, a beautiful home, a great job, and my health. For this I am thankful. What are you most thankful for this time of year? I would love for anyone who can comment to please do so. I think it would help us to get to know each other better.
Hugs and blessings during this season of Thankfulness
