Spring Blessings


Spring is here so I'm counting my every day spring blessings today. This beautiful yellow rose is one I photographed on the front patio of our condo.

In our Pre-K 3 class we are already up to the letter "W".  There aren't many letters left in the alphabet so that means our school year is coming to an end.  

The children have learned so much this year.  I love to see them reading to each other using their sight words they've been learning.

I love that the children learn much but have time for play too.  It actually teaches them social skills.

Many of them are now able to go all the way across on the monkey bars.  They get so excited!


Of course, they get tired.  Nap time is so good for them and ...for their teachers.


This is another rose from our front patio garden.  I do believe we have a choice each day.  I choose to make it a wonderful day and notice the every day blessings in my life.

Happy Spring!

  4. You always do such a great job of reminding us of the blessings we encounter everyday and often miss. Oh, I truly think that in this stage of our lives, condo living would have such appeal. Certainly would allow more time for other things. We arrived in Charleston yesterday and are off to tour some of the beautiful mansions and gardens. Happy Monday to you my friend!

  6. It's been fun to watch your children grow through the school year. How blessed they are to have Mrs. Debbie!

    Love the roses at the beginning, end, and all the beautiful blossoms in the middle.

  7. Roses are gorgeous. I just don't have any luck growing them. I tend to overwater. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week.

  8. I needed this today, Debbie - I have been missing our old house, especially the flowerbeds, as I always looked forward to watching the rebirth of the perennials and planting new pots of annuals. I will be able to do this at our new place, but it is still early here, so your beautiful roses are like a sweet gift to me today. Your list of blessings today shows that we do, indeed, have a choice to accept the gifts God has given us no matter where we are "planted".

    Blessings and love to you, dear friend!
