Thank you all so much for your love every day and for your presence in my life.  You are so appreciated and so cherished.  I pray that you always know that.  I count each of you as a blessing and always will.  Thank you!

The spring blooms are glorious and I don't think we have ever had a bluer sky!  The ducklings are so darn darling I cannot find words to describe. I found a rock in a tree on the lake with an adorable bird on it and I was so thrilled! Lakeland Rocks is a wonderful thing we have going on here - people paint rocks and leave them somewhere for someone else to find and keep or re-hide. A really neat way to spread some love and sunshine. Have I said lately how MUCH I love my town? SOOOO MUCH.  Papa Goose is in his glory with his babies and seeing him so happy makes me so happy.  And speaking of babies, Summer Lynn is so ready to be a big sister ...

And God willing, that moment will come tomorrow morning - Friday, February 24, 2017.  My "baby" will be having her second baby and well, you know my mama's heart.

Ballet shoes. They hang on the bed in the guest bedroom upstairs that also houses Summer Lynn's "castle." - the bedroom that once belonged to my daughter who wore these ballet shoes when she danced. My daughter, who flexed and pointed and stood tall on the raw, bleeding skin of the end of her toes. My daughter, who twirled one day as a little girl with excitement to show me her latest learned dance moves to end up falling and breaking her arm. My daughter, who every single time in her life since then, has gotten UP after every single fall. No matter what. The most beautiful part of these ballet shoes to me, as her mother, is that the remnants of the earth - and its grit and determination - is forever embedded on the soul. And grit and determination define this precious human SOUL to me - who continues to dance; live; and love. Always my baby - Shannon! May you and your new baby to be - yes DANCE. ❤ 

 

Yeppers, random thoughts and feelings as I feel them.

 

I will be back and share as soon as I can.  :-)

These are the moments ....


Love you,

Kim

Good morning my sweet friend. I pray that everything goes well, as I'm sure it will. It's hard on our hearts to have our babies grow up, isn't it?

I love that people paint rocks and leave them for others to find. What a neat thing to do!

Love to you,
rue

The ballet shoes and your thoughts are so very special, Kim. These pictures of Summer Lynn do make me smile. What a wonderful thing to do in your town to paint rocks and leave them behind for someone else to find. I think this "birdie" one was meant just for you. : )

Have a happy weekend.

love, ~Sheri

Scrumptious photos...Summer Lynn is so darling with her long dress and long hair...looking forward to meeting her baby sister. I know those photos will be beyond precious.

Pam

Love random true thoughts! Beautiful photos. I love the pic of the little girl in the long dress looking out into the field. Rue speaks highly of you in her blog so I thought I would come over and visit.

Pamela

What a beautiful post - full of love and light. Your photos contain details that speak volumes - the green feather on the duck, the two precious ducklings on the duck's back, the little ties in the closet, Summer Lynn in a long dress by the fence, the find of a perfect blue sky and birdie rock!, and then pink ballet shoes with a story to take our breath away.
Your daughter is an inspiration and so are you. Isn't life's circle a dance to cherish? Happy Spring, dear Kim! and thank you.
