Spring on the Farmette…..

The smell of laundry that has hung on the line ….little girls playing in the yard….

I love spring. There is something of renewal in the air. Time for blooming flowers, little birds hatching, and a picture of God’s unending grace.

It’s been a long week for our family. I lost a cousin this week. His unexpected death was painful, and a reminder that before our days start, they are also numbered.

Can I just stop to smell the flowers? I don’t want to get so wrapped up in home projects, and paint, baby preparations, and busyness that I forget to stop and smile at little girls and watch them play.

The fact is, I do forget sometimes. I pray the Lord teaches me to number my days and to make the most of each and every second He gives. They are EACH and EVERY ONE a sweet gift from a loving Father.
