I picked the winners by random number for my Honor Mom Contest Giveaway. I do so appreciate all of you who joined in with my giveaway fun. I enjoyed hearing from you and loved all your Mom stories. Sometimes I wonder what Mom stories my own children might someday tell about me. Not sure I want to hear them!! I …
When the Redbuds Bloom No new flower to name this week, but if it was, I’m sure you would all know this one. But when the redbuds bloom, you can know it’s spring in Kentucky. And that you’ll probably have a cool snap in the weather for Redbud Winter. But the Name the Flower game is over and the winners …
I don’t have the seeds for this old tree I spotted out in Monterey Bay. It was such an ancient tree that the garden keepers have built a frame to support its branches. That’s loving a tree. Nobody was around for me to ask what the …
Spring is Springing! You may still be seeing snow out your window, but if so, just turn your eyes to the calendar instead. It says right on there that March 20 is spring!! And I’m ready to believe it even if winter isn’t. As Doug Larson says in this quote, “Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a …

Christmas Contest Giveaway My Christmas contest has been great fun as all my giveaways because of all the reading friends who send me hellos and stories.

“Imagination has rules, but we can only guess what they are.” ~Mason Cooley I love games that take imagination. Guessing games can be fun too. So thank all of you who have played along with my mystery photos to enter my giveaway for Orchard of Hope. I’ll be drawing for the two winners on Saturday, November 2, so you can …
My birthday month is over. September has slipped away too soon. No more birthday stories in my e-mail box. 🙁 It’s been a crazy month down here on the farm with Christmas at Harmony Hill out in September and Orchard of Hope coming out in its new package on October 1. Add in one of Mom’s caretakers being sidelined with cataract …

They picked him as a pup because he seemed to be the quietest and listened the best. He must have been on his best behavior that day …
