a wonderful moment in the week
initiated by Abby Try Again and Shari Altman
to reflect on what we have experienced this week...
thru our senses
I have not participated in many weeks
with being away with the new grand baby
and then getting reacclimated to being back
but today The First Friday in July
seems like a perfect opportunity to reflect and begin again
and actually a way to allow a different tone to resound in my blogging
perhaps it's been too emotional and personal a week
but last week at this time
my brother called to say he would be visiting
cleaned...
and then cut flowers for the table
...seeing...
the hydrangea bushes we planted years ago
finally blooming for the first time
...hearing...
our niece lead their beautiful Lord's Prayer...
at Sunday mass with the family and the bishop!
tears in my eyes...
...tasting...
the first of many wonderful meals shared this week
...touching....
coolness
the beginning of the week was horrendously hot and humid
but Tuesday our nephew and his wife and their baby invited us to join them
up in the mountains for a picnic and a hike
and reminiscing next to the waterfall where they were married less than a year ago...
and the air was cool
and the water was cold
and best of all we somehow managed
to bring the cool back home with us
and the rest of this week has been gloriously wonderful
...smelling...
'Dom's coffee'...
cappuchino in the morning
oh my how it fills the house with aroma!
and then to enjoy it on these cool mornings on the front porch swing....
...heaven...
where I must learn to focus my eyes
and allow my heart to yearn...
for the lure of this wondeful world
still grips me so tightly
....hold loosely....
