Every tree limb overhead seems to sit and wait, while every step you take becomes a twist of fate.
Up on the watershed, standing at the fork in the road...

How We Live Our Days

Spring is not here but I know it will come. That's faith.

I wish that I could send each and every one of you a real bouquet of flowers to thank you for the gifts you've brought into my life. I never imagined that my search for one little person would reveal so many wonderful women along the way. Life is messy but God is good.

Today I read a quote from Katie over at Amazima that said "the way we live our days is how we live our life." I have to fight it hard but I refuse to live my days miserable and impatient.

So I'm thinking of spring and all the promise it brings each year. I hope my flowers from Snowmass Village bring you the same joy and promise they bring me.

PS. If you are looking for wiser words today I really recommend reading Katie's post. Counting the cost. From a 21 year old. Truly I am humbled by what she has given.

    Such beautiful flowers...ahhh, the hope of spring!

    I read Katie's post the other day and was very moved and challenged by it. Challenged is good.
