You'll have to excuse me...

For the quick post today...but I have a date with my big green lawn mower. We spent almost 3 hours together last night, but I am still not done! Ugh. To top it off it is raining off and on, making it even harder to mow! I am choosing not to complain (even though that sure sounds a lot like complaining) because having to mow, means that I have a great yard that we really do enjoy!

Here is another sneak peek from my gallery for June. I told you I have gone crazy with the sewing machine!! I love, love, LOVE that Scenic Route grid paper. I could use it on every page I think! It goes with everything. The photo on this page is one of my treasures. That little girl is an orphan from Myanmar. She was my little sidekick the entire trip, and never left my side. I will never forget leaving on the last day. She was holding my hand out of the window of the taxi and would not let go...running alongside the moving car. I was begging her to let go, because of the moving car and the situation being so dangerous. I looked in her eyes as she was sobbing and saw what each and every one of us is looking for. LOVE!!... plain and simple, someone to love us and be proud of us, and care for us, and to be there!! Even on the other side of the world, we are not so different. I only wish I could be there for her everyday and give her a hug and let her know how much I care! But I know that the Lord is there for her everyday and that is my comfort. Anyways..sorry to get sappy, but I just loved those orphans so much. They changed the way I see the world! For that I am grateful.

Have yourself and wonderful weekend!!
