Intertwining Roots – A Lesson on Community

Originally posted on joanneeddy's blog:
Redwood trees have always impressed me. From a seed no bigger in size than a tomato seed, they grow as tall as 35 story buildings. In fact, their height helps them survive in dry seasons as it helps them live on only the moisture they are able to extract…

A Hug is Still a Hug

She greets me at the door, jumping, spinning, wanting my full attention, demanding to be touched, acknowledged, held. She craves to have my arms wrapped around her in a loving embrace, holding her with tenderness and purpose. She dashes off wanting to show me what has held her interest throughout the day. She enthusiastically drags toys, balls, and stuffed animals to… Continue reading A Hug is Still a Hug

We had spent five days… Continue reading #fmf–Cheer

Birds Of A Feather–Part 2

Okay, I’m hooked. I am having more fun watching the fledgings as they have grown over the past 2 weeks. It’s like they grow an inch an hour. Amazing. I’ve taken pictures every day from the day the nest was built of mud and whatever, to today when the first birdlet flew from the nest… Continue reading Birds Of A Feather–Part 2

SL-Week 49–Vintage

Sylvain-Landry continues her photo challenge series with the theme of Vintage. I can’t think of many things that I have seen any older than sites in China. For instance, The Great Wall of China This plaque, although not Vintage, describes the building its attached to that was built 1522-1566. Pretty vintage if you ask me.… Continue reading SL-Week 49–Vintage
