Autumn

I can feel it in the breeze.

I can smell it in the air.

And, I know I'm right because I can see it on the calender.

It's coming.

my garden, last week of July.


And I
can't
wait.

    I totally agree! I was just looking through old pictures and saw Jill on Halloween last year and one of her playing in leaves. I got pretty excited. And then I got nervous. Whatever is she going to be for Halloween this year?!

    I love Autumn too, but this year I'm not quite ready for summer to be over....

    I SOOOOO want it to be fall! I hate the heat of summer.

    There is this annoying commercial on the radio for the state fair--it starts off "summer is everyone's favorite time of year" and I always say (or think) no, it's not. I like fall. And winter (for Christmas and Valentines day and my birthday) and Spring.

    But not really summer. At least, not Indiana summer.

    So, unfortunately here in NC fall seems a bit far off...it's still face melting, shoe losing hot. BUT, I also look forward to the fall -- you know me. I can't wait to go on walks again. Short ones this time, since I'll be all pregnant and tired out.

    I am so jealous of your pumpkins. We tried to grow some but they plants vined and flowered and nothing ever happened. Maybe we will try again next year.

    That is the good thing about my birthday. It means that the hottest part of the year is over and it is only going to get more pleasant from there onwards.

ThanksGIVEaway

This giveaway is now CLOSED. In a week we will find ourselves feasting with family and friends.  We will reflect on and share with each other the good things in life that we are grateful for.  And I think that's great, to give thanks. My heart lately though has been leaning in a slightly different direction, I've felt an emphasis on a different part of the name of next week's holiday.  My heart is filled with gratitude to people who have reached out in love, sympathy, and support when they see others in need..  Those who have voiced prayers, and kind thoughts and words on our behalf, and on behalf of people seeking comfort everywhere.  The people who have watched children, sent flowers, made meals, and done so much more to try and ease burdens.  And my thankful heart wants to GIVE back to these people, as a small way of saying Thank You. So today I present you with my ThanksGIVEaway.  You know those big fancy blogs that are sponsored by corporat...

Haven't Been Posting

Well, I haven't gotten on my computer much lately, and most of you are probably angry with me because I haven't been answering my phone either. (I know, I know, you hate it when I do that.) This really isn't the way I wanted to do this, but I think it's going to be a while before I manage to get everyone called, and maybe this will make you not hate me so much. This is the main reason I've been so sick and tired lately: This, and I've just plain been sick this week. It's no fun when you're not allowed to take anything! (Ok, I know it's never fun to be sick, but please pity me. Please?) :) So, look for Baby Rose #2 January 20th, 2010!!! YIKES.
