Ode To Spring

My new blog design is my personal Ode to Spring. Do you like it? Happy Birthday to by beautiful niece, Stephanie as she gets one year closer to the big 3 0.  I love, love, love you!

God to you hear me? Sometimes I think it takes you a while After I have my little talk with You. I realize that because there are 8 billion people on this earth and  I have no idea what number I am on your list. But when I asked you for some good news regarding  my husband's health, you sent me a sign today. A glimmer of hope. Thanks, God.   You do listen to me.
