* My mom was an eloquent writer–an artist with words.
* My mom was a gardener–waiting and working expectantly for spring and the roses that abound in her yard right now.
*My mom was photographer–enjoying the colors and sights that God put into this world.
*My mom was a quilter–making each quilt a special treasure for the one she was making it for.
*My mom loved me fiercely–I’m proud to call her my mom.
**Most importantly, my mom knew Jesus Christ as her Savior and Lord–God forgave her for her sins because she called on Jesus in faith!
My mom met Jesus face-to-face on Monday the 8th. We will all miss her terribly but are glad we get to see her in Heaven one day!
Thank you to all mom’s blog friends. I know she loved you. Here are pics of her garden blooming right now!
Sacred Touches 
Happy to see you keeping your mom’s blog open. I miss her too. Jeanne Marie

Bonjour Amies Ami
J’ai un cœur, tout tendre qui bat
Un petit cœur qui pourtant est grand comme ça
Il y a toujours une place pour une personne
Mon petit cœur est peux-t être fragile
Il m’a dis un jour
Que tu as réussi à trouver le mot de passe pour venir sur mon blog
Que ce code n’était pas très compliqué
Il est fait d’amour et d’amitié , de tendresse et de douceur
Ce n’est pas parce que on ne se voit pas ,que cela n’existe pas
Mon petit cœur te souhaite une bonne journée
Un bon week-end
Prends soin de toi, Bisous Bernard

I am so sorry to hear about your sweet Mama. I have been wandering around my blog today and realized that I hadn’t heard from her. She was ALWAYS one of my biggest supporters and I feel so horrible that I am just now returning here. It makes me realize my short comings. She commented such sweet things on my blog and I truly loved her sweet presence in my life. She was an encourager. I’ve always wondered what would happen to my blog and if my sweet daughter or husband would pop on to tell my friends, I am sure your mama would have been so pleased that you did for her.

I was going through my defunct WordPress blog and here’s a guest post that Natalie Scarberry sent my way in 2013:
‘May you arise each day with a
voice of blessing whispering in your heart
May you find harmony between
your soul and your life
May the mansion of your soul
never become a haunted place
May you know the eternal
longing that lies at the heart of time
May there be kindness in your
gate when you look within’
~ Edited compilation of Blessings by John O’ Donohue.
Our days are unique gifts, new creations of God’s ageless story, and in them is the perennial promise of resurrection. Of the 24 hours in each day, a garden in the early morning is one of the most magical places. While birds call to one another, and bees busily work, ‘fairies’ bless the flowers and sprinkle them with dew. As a result, plants glisten in the first dappled rays of light, while sweet aromas rise from the soil not yet blistered by the sun.
A new day is a blank slate that waits for the mark of each and every one of us. Upon the slate, we have the opportunity to record acts of kindness, deeds of grace, words of truth, utterances of beauty, and thoughts of joy. In order to make the slate worthy of the gift and the Giver, we must keep our eyes wide open so we don’t miss the beauty, the joy and the wonder in our Father’s world. We must be fully awake and aware of the world and the people around us. They are there for a reason. We must remember it is a privilege to perform daily prayers and an honor to do what should be done in accomplishing God’s will. Finally, we must ”sing, sing, sing and make music with the Heavens” for it is right to come into His courts with singing and words of praise on our lips.
Listen, O Heavens, and I will speak; hear, O Earth, the words of my mouth. Let my teachings fall like rain and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants. I will proclaim the name of the LORD. Oh, praise the greatness of our God!
