We are blessed as God's children to be recipients of His deep, enriching, healing comfort -- not like the shallow comforts of this world that leave you hurting worse afterward. I'm so glad that He is ministering to your spirit and soothing the loss. That photo of the "hugs and kisses" flower is amazing! It looks to me like a big, flowy, crinkly skirt. Wish I could wear it :)M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-87905740251093453762014-05-06T00:24:58.145-04:002014-05-06T00:24:58.145-04:00Love the delicate pattern on the moonflower petals...Love the delicate pattern on the moonflower petals.

I knew he would stay close to me until I was alright ..and he did. I am alright..but like your dreams..he visits me now and then. I am thankful for that. Our daughter visits me too. I am a very long way from being able to bear the loss of her. She visited me a while back and told me she was alright and that she was tending the gardens. I often think lately that I am ready to join them..almost. It's getting closer. I can feel it. This is a new feeling but I think it's common as we get older.<br />Take good care of yourself. It's not an easy road we travel.

I reckon they are what you would call Modern Day Gypsies and one must be careful when having work done by these folks. They are known for leaving a job half complete after receiving money's for said completed job, Sigh.... Your photos are always so beautiful and I can sometimes close my eyes and smell the scents you talk about! You had some great finds with your recent shopping trip to the garden center and with soothing music and water to greet you, I bet they sell a lot of beauties! How lucky to be surround by all those orchids. My Jasmine took a hard hit this winter and fear I may not have any blooms to enjoy. Those vines normally fill the entire acreage of our land with such sweet scents. Great for the soul. Am glad to see you had a date with the Easter Bunny! That reminds me of a blow up bunny I use to have as a child and it brought a smile to my face with that memory. We all have dreaded, works in progress with our gardens and only show the perfection on the blog. So nary do you fret with only showing the bright sides! Ha, I am looking out my window at weeds as I type thinking I should be out there plucking instead of typing! But today I am getting joy from typing so typing I do and no weeding for me today. Am sure your baby mocking bird is all grown up by now. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly birds grow from a small egg to a beautiful wing flapper full of song in the trees above. We too were expecting a lot of rain from this band of storms moving through but so far little to none has fallen. I don't mind as with these storms came great destruction for many. We are yet to clean up the entire mess from the ice storm so do not need more to deal with. We have just put it on the back burner and have been taking some vacations this spring. Must enjoy the mild temps while we have them. This front has brought humidity to the air and I do not like that but must get ready as it will soon be here to stay.... Happy Gardening... Oh, and My Mark always wears jeans as well. I love me a jean wearing man... :-) Skeeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08222522533934405029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-24720638543658269962014-04-30T09:22:16.733-04:002014-04-30T09:22:16.733-04:00Your Moonflowers blooms are so pretty.

I'm very sorry to hear about your husband. My first husband passed away at a young age from a heart attack. I was 25 years old and he was 33. I can't believe it has been 9 years. It was the most difficult experience and I went through the journey of grief. God led me through the valleys and the darkness. He was my comfort and strength. <br /><br />I love your faith, it's great to know you're a Christian woman. We know where our husbands are! I remarried and it has been 4 years now, praise the Lord I learned to love again. We're happy and we have a 16 month old daughter, she's a precious blessing! Thank you for posting photos of your garden :) I'm selective too, my garden is a work in progress in many areas. Have a wonderful week!
