Flowers have always been a favorite of mine...in fact, as long as I can remember, I've always been "Mom's lil flower girl" picking everything I found, and revealing in its beauty. So it is even today. Every place I travel, I am always looking for the local beauties and the life and color they display. Last spring it was the California poppy fields and the famous Southern CA Daffodil Hill which I just heard will be closing to the public after this season.
Well, this year my discovery has been the Texas bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush. (Not hard to spot in spring!) And I have been extra spoiled in the fact that My Mom and brother from Arkansas came to visit, and my Mom Holland from Oklahoma also came to visit and enjoy the beauty with me. Below are a few of my favorite pics from our time together!!
One of my handsome brothers...just so you girls know there are still some good ones out there, in the making...a true Warrior poet and man of God!
I love you guys, all of you!! Thanks for coming and enjoying spring with me, and brightening my life!
Sometimes I wonder what God can create from all the brown and drab of my life...the mistakes and failures, and the times I've wasted. Yet God is in the business of miracles, and in bringing beauty from ashes. And if he can do it with the soil of our earth, He can surely do it with me! What hope and courage that brings!"For the desert shall rejoice and blossom as a rose." Isa 35:1

hi melodious,
you certainly don' t know me, I am from Haiti and currently living in the Dominican Republic. I just wanted you to know that I like what you said in your blog. God can take yours mistakes and turn it into something beautiful.
Right now, in this period of my life, I have difficulty seeing this truth, all I can see it's a cloud of regrets, wondering if I could ever forgive myself.
Thanks for your toughts
