Being Thankful


I like taking part in Thankful Thursday every week. It gives me a chance to stop and focus on my many blessings. 


It's been a difficult couple of months for all of us.

The flowers have been blooming


and the weather has been picture perfect.


But life is not without times of sadness.

My precious Mother in law passed away this week and now we are spending time every day remembering her life...a life well spent. She was a wonderful person and inspired us all with her intelligence and generosity. She was a joy to spend time with and she will never be forgotten.


This is one of my favorite photos of the two of us, taken in May, 10 years ago when we were celebrating her special birthday at the Biltmore Estate. What a beautiful lady...inside and out.


We are thankful for so many things this week and count our blessings even during the sad times.


All of the wildflowers in this post are Hatpins! They were blooming all along the trail in a boggy area deep in the woods.

I’m joining Thankful Thursdays.
