Good morning Friends,
Here are some blooms taken yesterday.
I found this in an artist’s pad of paper yesterday as I was going through some things. I can remember posing for this many moons ago, I was in my early thirties at the time.
Every day I miss my dear husband,
every day I feel his love and see his love
evidenced in so many ways here
in our little haven.
***
Every day God is my strength.
Every day is new.
May I graciously grow older
trusting in God
who works all things out.

What a wonderful pastel. How lovely you are, Rainey! I'm enjoying your flowers. It's snowing here today!
What a beautiful pastel. I didn't realize both you and Mark were artists.
Lovely blooms. What kind of flowers are those blue ones with the bee?

You are a very lucky lady, FL. Beautiful flowers and a beautiful pastel. Just like finding my great aunt's work. You need to see and treasure it every day! Sending warmer breezes from the north! xo LVL and The Herbal Husband
I love how many flowers you have blooming! We have daffodils and crocuses so far, but not too much else!
Gorgeous flowers and a hidden gift from your hubby just waiting for you to find again.
A lovely honoring of your husband.
Love never dies. And, indeed, grows.
Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
You WILL frame that portrait, won't you?
The flowers? I haven't words to express my appreciation for your skills - photographically & agriculturally!
And the caravan. Be still my heart! THIS time I see a FACE on its end. Do YOU see it?
The pastel is lovely. What a treasure you've rediscovered.
I always enjoy the visual delight of your flowers so much Lorraine - the pastel is exquisite, I had no idea your DH was an artist as well.
Perhaps there is more to come across as you go through things?
Much love across the oceans

Hi Lorraine, Love the pastel of you. Your garden looks like it's full of blooms. I especially like the blue and yellow blooms. Your orchids are gorgeous! Have a good weekend and I hope you get some rain.
Hi Lorraine, Love the drawing your hubby did... Awesome! What a talented man he was.
Love seeing your Fl flowers... We are finally getting some spring here --so I'll show some of ours on Monday.
Hugs,
Betsy
How wonderful that you happened upon the drawing. Beautiful memories. Your little corner of the world sure has become an inviting paradise.
What a talented couple,the pastel and photographs are both beautiful.That bee in the one photo didn't look like it could get much more pollen on his legs.Hope you find many more gems and memories.
wow what a lovely drawing! so wonderful, and real!
Your faith is remarkable as you miss your husband. I can imagine how days may seem harder than others. Bless you dear, a dear daughter of Heavenly Father.

The sketch is
beautiful
Your last words
are mine also.
Your flowers
are beautiful...
This very well suits for the GBBD meme. I know i love that Clerodendrum ugandense, i wonder why i haven't planted it yet, this shot reminds me again to look for it. I love that long shot of your cottage built for you by your husband, and we have followed the developments in there in so many posts. I feel like i've lived there too. haha, and yes that profile painting is so lovely. Take care Lorraine.
That should be framed and hung in your cottage. It is just beautiful.
The flowers are lovely as always.
Hello sweet Lorraine,
I love the beautiful pastel that your husband did of you. What a precious thing to come across. I really hope you display it. It is too beautiful to put away.
Your garden flower photos are just gorgeous! You have such an amazing talent with the camera!!! AND growing beautiful flowers.
sending hugs...
The portrait is beautiful. You're such a beautiful woman, Lorraine. I bet Mark told you that all the time, didn't he?
Your flowers are stunning. I love them all. I can just see you strolling the garden, sniffing and snipping and remembering. May God surround you with his love today and every day.
What a beautiful pastel... You have so much going on in your gardens right now. Isnt Spring just wonderful with low humidity and the birds chirping in the air. I think Gods way of cleansing us...
You now have something else to add to your garden!!! Get over to "In the Garden" as you are a winner!!!!
The pastel is really lovely! He was such a talented and creative man, as evidenced by the caravan and all the garden bits and pieces he built for you.
Gorgeous flowers! I love the first one, and the little bee on the others. He's watching you.
