Random Thoughts are OK....Aren't They....

Today has barely started...already my mind is BUZZING....I am all over the place with random thoughts of appreciation...smiles...looking forward to what's coming...I realize the bunny trail I'm on is a little disjointed...but hey aren't random thoughts OK.......if you feel like it come help me start my day...
I loved putting this BOO stake out in the garden this weekend....he didn't scare you ...DID HE....
I told you last week I was going to have my GREAT NIECE.... M...this weekend....I had so much fun with her..at four years old she is a tiny little adult...full of thoughts and ideas of her own...I was enchanted by her all weekend...the minute we went up to the Attic she said.."I'm going to decorate and clean my room"...since we pulled the attic together enough for the fam to share it with us...M has called it HER ROOM...she said "I know not for real GIGI ...but whenever I come to your house it is my room RIGHT...."  M woke up at 5:30 in the morning BRIGHT EYED AND BUSHY TAILED....her first request was to go up into the attic so she could finish her "project"...her words not mine....the  first picture  in this post is of a table  we have next to the bed...she asked if she could decorate it...the only items on the table were the Lamp and the books...she arranged everything else....I took a picture of it because her desire to be creative using her own little artful eye tickled me PINK after she was done decorating the table she found some old Ball jars filled with buttons...such a squeal out of her like she found   gold coins....she asked if she could dump them out on this platter to "ORGANIZE" them...she had hours of fun with the jars of those buttons... we sat on the rug as she showed me each one ......I am so blessed to be her GiGi....
While M was here we moved this wonderful white corner cabinet into the corner of the attic just as you start up the stairs...she tried to help by telling us " THAT LOOKS JUST BEAUTIFUL..IT BRINGS LIGHT INTO THE ROOM"...I think that little one is going to be an artist...
As I woke up Sunday morning the first question my sweetie asked was "Honey do you want to have a fire outside its a perfect temperature for it"....of course my reply was an enthusiastic.... YES....this is my sweetie picking up some leaves    ...as I sat watching the flames dance I started to feel wistful...my mind wandered...upward
The clouds were rolling in...the breeze was blowing...I felt the Holy Spirit landing on my heart...I started counting my blessings ....thanking the Lord for the first fire of fall....for the love of my sweetie....you get the idea...I found this scripture in my devotions that fit my thoughts ....Then the land will yield its harvest, and
God, our God, will bless us, with the beautiful
colors of Fall. ( Psalms 67:7 )
This is because; He has made everything beautiful in its
time. ( Ecclesiastes 3:11 )
The blessing of knowing mother nature has an internal clock is comforting to me ...the consistency of it year after year without fail the seasons fold in and out of one another..reminding us that no matter where we are in our journey...the GREAT I AM...the star hanger....the universe creator is in control...he is passionate about us ...you and I...our family's friends all the faces that belong to us.....THAT IS SOMETHING TO PONDER...I hope you all are starting a truly stellar day ...a Tuesday to remember....I am so thankful you stopped by...I wish you big blessings and hugs ....Karena
