I've been wrong before
and I know I'll be wrong again.
I was most definitely WRONG!

Because when I saw the lovely, fluffy white, bright snow this morning...

Because when I saw the lovely, fluffy white, bright snow this morning...
And when I stood on our deck,
taking photos in sox and pajamas only;
then later when I threw on a pair of boots
and a light jacket and happily made my way through the snow;

and finally when I listened to the serenade of a solitary bird in a tall tree,

and finally when I listened to the serenade of a solitary bird in a tall tree,
I thanked God that He,
once again,
knew I was wrong
and made it right.
For deep, deep down I had hidden a wish that our garden would turn into a winter
(spring) wonderland, at least once more,
just like the wonderland I had experienced at Mt Hood not so long ago.

And then I came indoors where I drank two mugs of wonderfully hot sweet orange tea
and enjoyed the snow blessing from the warmth of our home.
And now, since I've been up all night, it's time for a long nap.

Thank you God for your blessings!

Note:
As you can see we have a few things blooming (or just about to bloom).
They are: the plum trees, daffodils, pieries, the magnolia, the forsythia.
Just heard today on the news that the latest spring snow we've had is in early April...
do you think?? :)

Thanks so much for taking time to leave a comment! I LOVE hearing from visitors and your comments most always leave a BIG smile on my face and sometimes a little giggle too! I do moderate comments to ensure a family friendly blog and also to catch any spam so your comment won't post immediately unless I am online at that time. However, I do check for comments regularly. If you don't see your comment post within a day or two, it's most often due to it being a Sunday (when I limit my Internet use) or, at times, a computer issue. Again thanks and have a GREAT day:)
Blessings, Aimee
