Today is a day to arise & spontaneously sing. Join me? Oh what a beautiful Morning! Oh what a beautiful day. I've got a wonderful feeling everything is going my way!
My life finally paused enough to grab a few pictures of the plants growing about my yard. There has been some wonderful sunny days and wet rainy days. As a result, tons of plants and flowers are growing all over the place. Warning...this post will be picture heavy and some pictures may be a repeat. No filters. The Spirea hedge growing next to our drive way has lovely white flowers. The hedge has filled out quite nicely. I definitely didn't over prune and maybe should have clipped more. I am thinking of digging some of the roots that are meandering in the wrong direction and handing them out. Looks like some root propagation research is in my future. The back garden has a mix of Alaska roses, morning glory, Columbine, ferns, potatoes. This rose bush is doing battle with the morning glory. Both want the same space. At the moment, I'd say the roses are doing pretty good. One of the many...
My dad is gone. He's been gone for 13 years now. I do miss him. The hurt has lessened over the years, but there are times where that heartache is still there. When I see something I think "My dad would love this" or when the kids do something silly, I think "oh I've got to tell my dad." I miss him. I miss hearing his voice. "As fine as frog hair" in answer to your question of "how ya doing today?" I miss his smile and chuckle. I miss his advice. I miss having him around. Happy Father's Day to my dad. I love you.
