The Churn

 I guess we all have a few sentimental things we want to keep, just because they bring back good memories and happy thoughts of another time.
A few years ago I took this picture of some of my  "happy" things.
A little birdhouse made by my husband in his healthier years, my Mom's old churn and butter mold,
a blue enamel coffee pot from my brother, with my Dad's favorite flowers...marigolds.
The churn was special because I can remember Mom using it so much.
She made kraut, pickled beans, and sometimes when the grapes down on the creek were ripe she would make a churn of wine. I really wanted to keep it.

One day I went up to the building where I had left it sitting outside.
This is my churn.

I had seen some boys up there, but had no idea they were doing this.
They had to search to find the brick to break the churn.
Sad!
Sometimes bad things just happen for no reason.
I am glad I still have the picture.
And...God is still good and merciful to all who call on Him!
Have a blessed day.

A New Day

Today is the day the Lord has made.
There is much going on in the world...God is still in control.
Praying for the people and places in the path of hurricane Dorian.
Blessings on all.

Mums

Autumn is on the way.

Being a summertime person, I try to keep summer as long as I can.

Yesterday when I was a Walmart, these mums called to me,

"Here I am".

Now, to get them placed.

Thank the Lord for His beautiful flowers...in all seasons.

Love,

Shirley

Bouquet

Two of my special friends run a ceramic shop near me.

I stopped by the other day and they gave me this beautiful bouquet of yellow roses.

Aren't they beautiful?

The Love of God shows itself in many ways.

Blessings on all.

Love,

Shirley
