Gifts

Yesterday afternoon we got nearly 1/4" of rain, enough to wash the dust off things, if not to soak the ground underneath trees. The air feels fresher; my soul feels lighter.

But there was still enough dust in the atmosphere to paint a pretty sunset.

Late last night as I was wiping off the dogs' feet after their final potty break, I caught an unexpected glimpse of white – a night visitor on the bloom of my potted mint.

For all these gifts we truly thank you, Lord!

That's it for now from . . .
