If you have never visited the Wichita Kansas Botanical Garden… I certainly encourage you to do so.
The gardens charming atmosphere filled my soul with a calmness as I sat under the flower filled trees along the pathway. I whispered prayers of joy, thanking and praising God for my life as I absorbed the touching wonder and beauty that we are graced with.
It is sad that we take so much for granted and do not take the time to look and see our blessings during our busy schedules.

Family Reunion – PR7052
Summer 2007 our family had our first reunion in years. What a joy it was and what a shock to discover just how small our family was becoming.
On the last day of the re-union we had church in the park. I was invited to be guest speaker with the theme: ”All the little joys in life”. However, being family. When I asked what they would like me to paint that morning… there was a split of choices. So to please everyone, I did a split painting, jumping back and forth with different request of what to include. We had a wonderful time. My family is like a can of mixed nuts… and when you throw in a little salt, it’s just perfect!

Presentation – PR7053
I was well received by the residents of the Good Shepherd. They rallied around in their wheelchairs, scooters, or dragging folding chairs in for a closer view. They was so filled with excitement and enthusiasm that it seemed to be contagious…
I was going to share “little joy’s of life” through my painting presentation…. but they gave me a lesson about “ the joys of life” in the golden years.
What a beautiful blessing it was to be surrounded by such loving people. So aware of how precious life is and the awareness of thier aging bodies.
When I reach this time in my life… may I be filled with kindness, blessed with joyous energy (no matter what my physical condition may be), and freely and opened praising God in all things.
