Flowers

I love Flowers.

Today my girls and I went for a walk in the Spring time air at our local Botanical Gardens to
find some flowers.


We found the perfectly created, dressed in splendor, the elegant and the delicate, bright and beautiful.

















Getting some sun on our faces and just being.

Are not flowers just so beautiful? Yet flowers in all there stunning beauty, so unsurpassable do not compare to the beauty you were created to be.
  But you oh women of beauty 
there is no one like her on earth, 
never has been, never will be. 
She is women beyond compare.
Song of Songs 7:8 (Message)
This is truth.
Believe the whisper... You are beautiful.

Ode to Cake

 I love CAKE

Ode to cake:
Oh how I love you.  
                                    Yep that's it, that's my ode, it says it all.

Cake is beautiful. After yesterday's Tea Party I decided to stay on the theme of occasions that bring out the beauty in us and share my favorite cakes from Pinterest. These cakes make me swoon and for reasons that I can't explain make me feel beautiful.
Have some fun with me and check out these works of beautiful food art.

You are Beautiful

I love a Tea Party.

Today I mentioned the words "Tea Party" to Missy 7 and Missy 3. Well smiles appeared, flowers were placed, dresses picked, tiaras worn and twirling began.

These simple words brought out so much beauty in my girls. They were drawn immediately to being the most beautiful they could be for the occasion. Beauty is something that all girls are because they simply loose themselves in the moment of being a princesses, that beautiful girl they just are. They never question it.

As we travel through time and age we never lose the desire to immerse ourselves in all that is beauty yet we do start to question if we are still beautiful.  Every grown up girl wants to feel beautiful, know that they are beautiful and bring beauty to those around them.

The truth is you are, you do.

You are unique, created diverse and made to be this worlds beauty. You are loved by a God in heaven who created you to be beautiful in grace, elegance, strength, courage, care, laughter, love, nurture, help and hope.
You alone bring what only you can from the heart and this is what makes you beautiful from the inside to shine on the outside. Do you believe this today?
Simply believe the whisper... you are beautiful.
I am learning to.




Beautiful flowers.




Fairy tea.

Morning Walk.

Morning! (Happy face if your a morning person if not I'm handing you a coffee).

Come with me on a morning walk, come on, come! Let's go touch the sky.



First through the trees, let the sunlight filter down over you. Feel it's freshness, become awake, alive.
Don't you love how absolutely everything is crisp, clean and sparkling with dew in the morning?
Let's get going.

Oh this is tempting but no. Not this way today, 
come with me another time and we'll go down there.
Right, over the diamonds, they are a girls best friend - or our hips at the pace 
we are going (of course). :)
Follow the path,
oooooo let's stop and smell the flowers it's always the right time to.
Let's keep going. Past the waves,
and the pole with the numbers that I always notice. I'm sure they have little or boring significance 
but I like to think they hold a mystery! (Yes my mind is always thinking of a good story).
Follow that yellow line.
"Just keep walking, just keep walking do do da do do da."
Pass this cute little guy,
 pass the giant blue bolder stone,
detour past the green paint,
pass some "daddy love" - always good to know.

Next, up the curve,
over the burnt sun orange,
 now up we go - if we're going to touch the sky. 
Up,
up,
and up.
We made it. 
Now all that's left is to...
...touch the sky.

(And walk back, who's up for a ice-cream?)


A little bit of fun because the sky is beautiful.  Hope you have a fun weekend too.
