Hills and Valleys

Project 365 – #120 It’s funny how animals do crazy things when they are excited. Our puppy will chase his tail or run around and do short little barks when he gets really excited. It’s fun to see him get these little bursts of energy out of no where. When we were out walking, we saw this dog in a backyard. He kept jumping up to see us over the backyard wall. It was way too funny. I finally was able to snap a picture while he was jumping in the air. This is one of those pictures that doesn’t…

Embracing Change

Posted in Family, and Photography

Project 365 – #119 Although change is not really fun for me, I have chosen to embrace the changes going on in our lives right now. I’m enjoying the short little walks that I get to take with D as part of his therapy. I’m loving being able to see him during the day. We’re happy to be able to spend this extra time with him. Yes, there is much to do to take care of him, but we have decided to focus on the positive rather than the negative. D’s back surgery was a bit unique as they went…

Project 365 – #118 Today, I got up earlier, so I would be able to prepare a meal for D in the hospital in case he was able to eat solid foods today. (He started a liquid diet late last night.) I wanted to get the meal done before we headed over for our morning visit. While I was preparing his meal, I received a text from him saying they were going to release him from the hospital this afternoon. I was in shock as he still hadn’t eaten any solid food, but I assumed that they would make sure…

Mama and Chick

Project 365 – #117 The baby birds have hatched. One baby bird likes to show off her pretty face while the other bird constantly shows me her back end. The mama bird always tries to draw me away from the nest by flapping on the ground when I’m taking pictures. She’s such a good mama. His Eye is on the Sparrow by Civilla D. Martin Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come, Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heav’n and home, When Jesus is my portion? My constant Friend is He: His eye is…
