On Mothers Day, Flowers, Random Photo's, and Some Ramblings...

Hello Everybody! How did you all celebrate your Mothers Day? I am constantly reminded of what a wonderful Mom we are blessed with, and I love to have a day that we can set aside to honor her. She deserves more than one!

Mom is a hard worker, so I think what was most difficult for her yesterday, was trying  not to work, because we asked her not to! She is a great example of the Proverbs 31 woman and I know there isn't (nor will there ever be) anyone who could do a better job than she does. Isn't it amazing how God knows exactly what kind of family we need? I would post more about Mom, but I think I'll go into more detail around her birthday, (September 22) so you'll have to wait until then! ;)

Mykaela, Keturah, and I went outside to bring the egg basket out to the barn, and I quickly ran back in to snap "a few" shots of our beautiful banks rose. It's actually not very large at this point, but when you take snapshots up close, it looks full and the flowers look brilliant! (not that they aren't, it's just easier to notice through a picture) Don't you just love photography! The more pictures I take of nature, the more I appreciate, and learn to notice God's amazing creation! Kayla had some fun and took a couple pictures of Turah and I, then I took a picture of them. I think it's easy to tell that we're sisters! :)

Mom received some "Mother's Day Flowers" from Dad, and some from Grandma. Today I had fun taking pictures of them. The flowers are just beautiful! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do the roses justice. The rich red somehow did not come out through the camera. (Probably the lighting) and of course, nothing could "picture" the beautiful smell! By-the-way, There is a wide space between the picture below and another. Not sure why that happened but I can't seem to fix it... (???)
 Anyways, I hope you enjoy these photo's!

God Bless,

The Woman Who Fears the Lord

The Woman Who Fears the Lord (Psalm 31)
An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels The heart of her husband trusts in her,and he will have no lack of gain.12 She does him good, and not harm,all the days of her life. She seeks wool and flax,and works with willing hands.14 She is like the ships of the merchant;she brings her food from afar.15 She rises while it is yet nightand provides food for her householdand portions for her maidens.16 She considers a field and buys it;with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.17 She dresses herself [2] with strengthand makes her arms strong.18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable.Her lamp does not go out at night.19 She puts her hands to the distaff,and her hands hold the spindle.20 She opens her hand to the poorand reaches out her hands to the needy.21 She is not afraid of snow for her household,for all her household are clothed in scarlet. [3]22 She makes bed coverings for herself;her clothing is fine linen and purple.23 Her husband is known in the gateswhen he sits among the elders of the land.24 She makes linen garments and sells them;she delivers sashes to the merchant.25 Strength and dignity are her clothing,and she laughs at the time to come.26 She opens her mouth with wisdom,and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.27 She looks well to the ways of her householdand does not eat the bread of idleness.28 Her children rise up and call her blessed;her husband also, and he praises her:29 “Many women have done excellently,but you surpass them all.”30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.31 Give her of the fruit of her hands,and let her works praise her in the gates.
