Hawk Sighting
Yesterday when my mom and I were driving back from the hospital as we neared the house, we spotted a large bird flying across the street. I stopped to watch and we could see the prominent red tail on the hawk. It flew to the fence that surrounds our complex. I tried to get a […]
Babies and Babies
We always enjoy videos of babies and baby animals. It just makes a person smile and feel good. When our friend came over today, she shared a video of her 1 year old granddaughter in the wading pool during the 4th of July. She was splashing away and enjoying the toys in the water with […]
Parkinson’s Butterfly
At breakfast we asked my mom what she wanted to do on this beautiful day. She said she wanted to go to the park and see the Parkinson’s Butterfly. Last year, the daughter of a man with Parkinson’s disease created a butterfly piece of art that was auctioned off at the Rotary Club’s annual fundraiser. […]
Sparrows
I was talking with a friend today about how sometimes I have a feeling of impending doom. Perhaps that’s a little dramatic. But I do sometimes feel like I’m just waiting for the next bad thing to happen. Minutes later, I heard a song that started with the lyrics, “You can’t add a single day […]

This is the description: “As scientists and artists, we are all observers of the world. We are all interpreters […]
Loving Eyes
As part of my morning prayers today, I read Psalm 65. It talks about how God has created such a beautiful world that we live in. I thought about some of the camping trips I have made. Several times, I have been blessed to be on the top of a large mountain and overlooking the […]
Blessed Mother’s Day

Today my mom and I watched one of her favorite annual events – the Kentucky Derby. There were stories and other races leading up to the main event as usual. One of them was a story about Cody Dorman and the horse Cody’s Wish named in honor of the boy. Cody had a rare medical […]
