Now Winter's Gone, and the Spring Has Come

Something happens inside of me as Spring unfolds. I'm not quite sure what it is; I can't quite figure it out; but I feel like I begin to wake up during Spring. I feel like I become more alive and aware as the sun warms my skin and the breeze becomes a little less chilled.
I have a deep feeling that this Spring and Summer are going to hold amazing things for me. That strange, wonderful things will happen. I had the same feeling at the beginning of last year, and sure enough, things did take place that were extraordinary. Already this year, some very complicated, new things have happened. Unexpected, and echo without a voice, a song without words.
And I have that same feeling this year. We'll see what takes place.
Do you wake up in Spring?

Tomorrow morning I'm leaving with dad to go to the Father/Daughter Retreat in Georgia, and will be gone until Monday. Prayers for safe travels would be appreciated. I'll post pictures when I get back. :)

Love you all!

I wonder

Not only on the outside, but on the inside, too...

AND THIS....

Is my reaction just now as an idea hits me for Cafe. 
All writers can sympathize with this.
Because it's true.

You Have to Watch This....

Please watch this.
This is what true love really is. It's not the warm and fuzzies and the butterflies.
It's dedication, no matter what.
Because love never fails.

To Everything There Is a Season

We had to put our cat Bear down this morning. She was having trouble breathing and mom took her to the vet; she had cancer, so we said goodbye not thirty minutes ago. We've brought her back to bury her here. We had her for 10 years, so she might as well continue to stay.
Please don't send me comments asking why I'm crying for a pet - I've received comments like that before and can do without it.

And This is What Transpires....

When you leave two sisters and a camera unoccupied.

In Which the Writer Celebrates

    

     Today marks five years since I first started this blog! EEK! I can't believe it's been five entire years of pictures and posts and videos and writing and... all that good stuff!
     Thanks to all of my wonderful, faithful (and sometimes a little less faithful, but still wonderful!) readers, who keep up with my posts and leave me comments and read what I have to say! I want to hug you all! Thanks for sticking with me for five years - tis a long time.
     Each and everyone of you may consider your lovely selves hugged to death and promised more posts... hopefully... ^_^ I've been BUSY with many other things and really haven't had the time (or motivation, haha) to sit down and write something up. Pictures shall have to suffice.
     AND since I mentioned pictures - here's Life In Pictures.

     LOVE TO YOU ALL!

     FIGHTING!
