Another posy for Miss Read on her birthday. She would be able to describe so beautifully what I am seeing right now when I look away from the computer screen…yellow butterflies landing and fluttering, landing and fluttering amongst the cherry tree and lilac blossoms, fluffy dandelions spangling the grass, the ploughed fields in the distance…

This is so pretty. I found out about Miss Read through your blog and read a couple of her Christmas stories this winter and loved them.

I know the feeling. As I explained to my daughter last night, I’ve reached a point in my life where I have to store up and save some of my emotions. There have been so many heart breaking situations over the years that I’ve had absolutely no control over. I couldn’t mprove it, no silver lining, nor could I change it. I’m now learning how to just do my best to cope with it. It takes intentional effort to seek out what’s beautiful in life. The beauty does out weigh the ugly. Sometimes it harder than others to remember that.
