Silence

The yard this spring with 21 lilac bushes in bloom.

Beautiful flowers Kristen sent me.


Tonight's sky.

Sometimes life gets hectic, hurried and noisy, but I treasure my quiet times of meditation, reflecting or enjoying God's creations that surround me. These times are a renewal for me just as sleep is. I have been thinking lately of a quote of Mother Teresa's -

God is the friend of silence.

Trees, flowers, grass grow in silence.

See the stars, moon, and sun, how they move in silence.

New Beginning.

Kristen was kind to set up this blog for me to record family happenings. We have since started a fun family blog with everyone able to contribute. This will be a personal blog or journal to be shared with family and friends.
