What I really want to be seeing...

I just can't bear to take pictures of what I'm seeing out my windows.  Some may thing that layers of ice is beautiful but I see deadly.  Still, I'm trusting God to take care of us.  I've begged Him to allow us to keep our electric throughout the coming of more ice.  And I know that even if He allows us to lose power He will be there and will provide for us.  And so.  Instead of showing you pictures of the ice outside I dug up some pictures that show the kind of scenes I really want to be looking at.  Patience, Jill, spring always comes! 

'As long as the earth endures,

seed time and harvest,

cold and heat,

summer and winter,

day and night

will never cease.'

Genesis 8:22

 Towels on my sisters clothes line last summer.  I just love all the pretty colors against her lovely white fence.  And the grass.  I think we have some of that around here but it's been covered up for so long I'm not even sure anymore.

 Flowers.  Summer.  Ahhhh.

 Swimming!!  OUTSIDE.  Summer you can't get here soon enough for me.  Wish you could stay all year long.

 Oh that yellow bucket.  Isn't it a fun well-used vintage thing?  Alas my niece likes it to play with and looked at me like I was crazy when I asked her if I could take it home with me!!!

My obnoxiously out-of-control flowers from last summer.  Oh but I love how they take over like they own the place:)  Counting the weeks till I can plant again!!
