A Few Small Things and Scripture Picture

A few small things from my week that brought joy
and made me smile... 

... the very first ripe peaches from 
Blakelea's tree.  
This special tree was planted 
for our grandgirl after she was born. 

 Walking past moss roses and seeing 
this  gold star.  

 Smelling a wafty, sweet perfume and 
discovering it's the stargazer lilies... blooming their purdy lil heads off.
-Another gift that Trent gave me long, long ago. 
 Watering and turning free our incarcerated pumpkin plants... 
Seeing these big strong leaves; I can already taste 
the punkin pie and bread.  

 doorknobs n bloomstiks.  
I had  never grown this type of sunflower before;
it was a seed pack gift from a friend! 

 And then there is 
this!!!!!!!!!!!
Eeeeek... I lovelovelove finding hearts in nature.  
If you make it bigger you can even see the cute lil nibbles.
After putting the chickens to bed last night I was walking through 
the garden back to the house and leaving the raspberry isle it registered 
what I'd just seen.  I turned around and sure enough... 
a critter chewed the cutest heart.  
I ran inside to find my phone and went back to get the photo before
something messed it up. haha  
When I got back inside I thought, "Now whyyy did I just leave it there?
So I went back again and carefully grabbed the cluster and 
put it safely inside a book to dry.  


When the day comes that I want to use it for a stencil... but ...I can't remember 
where my safe place was...
could someone please remind me that it's in the old Draper's Self Culture book
on page: 211?  lol  
Thanks! 

I sign off tonight with a scripture picture made using the 
strawberry jar from my sweet Mama.  
"But now, O LORD, you re our Father; we are the clay, and You are our Potter; we are all the work of Your hand."  Isaiah 64:8
