Sand Heart -Guest Heart Thursday

I love the Subtle greys of sand.  One of the places where Sissy and I love to visit is the Coast.  We are so blessed to live this close to beaches and sand, though the waters of the Pacific Ocean are always chilly.  I took this picture the last time Clytie and I were able to make a trip to the beach.  What a wonderful time we had with Cheryl, her husband and dear friends.

Heart of Hope -Guest Heart Thursday

My husband was in surgery for quite some time, when I noticed this perfect heart reflected onto the ceiling of the waiting room.  I couldn't believe my eyes--neither could anyone else in our part of the room.

Turns out it was the sun shining through the window, reflecting off my phone, which was sitting on a coffee table.

I believe it was when I saw that beautiful unexpected heart, that I knew for sure all would be well.  Indeed, the surgeon removed all the cancer and my husband, though still in pain, improves every day.   There is a lot for him to do yet, in this life.  I am so thankful for a heart filled with hope.

Leprechaun Valley

This is from down in the Canyon where a small stream cuts through Leprechaun Valley to join the creek below.  It is a beautiful place.  I have a yearning to walk through these amazing forests.  In winter they are quite different than at any time of year.

Thank you again for your kind thoughts and powerful prayers for our family as we faced the loss of our precious Father and for my darling husband as he faced surgery for cancer.

May the Mighty Creator bless you all with the warmth of His embrace.
