The End

This morning after we took Raychel to school

there was time to walk Jolene to school. It is something

we love to do, walk. We would walk everywhere if

I wasn't always late! Anyway, as we walked I

noticed we could see our breath! We both thought it

was chilly this morning but to see our breath?

We also smelt then saw smoke coming from

the nearby chimney. After

I dropped her off at school I went on my

own walk and took the long way home. It was a

beautiful morning, the sky was so blue with a few

fluffy white clouds floating around, then I noticed on

the roof tops in the shade there was frost on them.

As I was walking toward my own home I notice the lonely

bright red rose in the flower bed along side a lonely daisy.

It made me kind of sad to think this season of our life is over,

what will the next season bring? I then had to smile because of

all the great summer memories came rushing back, these

are the last ones who will bloom before the frost really sets in and

snow begins to fall. I couldn't help but

think about a few of the things I am most

grateful for:

My little family,

my flowers,

the warm weather,

the beauty

of the earth that is so alive as the seasons are changing.

I am grateful that God created this world.
