COME WALK IN MY GARDEN

A mossy coat covers this little bird and the dish holds a maple seed for a hungry squirrel.
The bleeding heart drapes over the cedar rail reaching for the sun.

Springs delight. The tiny Forget-Me-Not shyly opens her lovely blue petals And brings a smile to my face.

Oh glory of glories!!! The heirloom Lilac in all her sweetness blooms.
The Lord's Angels carry this fragrance to our heavenly Father.

A maple blossom. Yes even the Maple trees bloom. Each small flower will become a helicopter like seed. In the late fall when they have dried they will break loose and spin to the ground where those the squirrels don't eat will become a new tree. Right now I have thousands of seedlings in my yard. Want a tree? LOL

The red peony is eager to show her loveliness. This bud is ready to burst open with a multitude of fragrant, satiny petals. She is a show off!

I call her pink princess. I don't know the true name of this sweet little tulip but she is so dainty and precious, all trimmed in white and opening her petals to the sun.

Another delightful pink blossom!! This was one of those end of season plants that had lost it's tag. I remember the price was $1.50. I love surprises and this one thrilled me. Is she not a delicate beauty? I have a blue Butterfly bush growing behind her.

This little row of tulips is three years old. The bulbs are multiplying nicely. Those little yellow 'flowers' I did not plant. I guess the Lord thought I needed them.

The Spanish Bells have multiplied incredibly well. They are growing all over the place! The purple seems to be the most prolific but I also have white and pink. I love them! There are Columbine growing behind this clump.

Here's a macro shot of the white Spanish Bells. It's so pristine against the green foliage and blue sky. You'll have to excuse the angle. I had to hold my camera down by my toes and they couldn't use the view finder. LOL

Little Matilda thoroughly enjoyed her run around the back yard while I was taking pictures but she and her friend Toodles were waiting for me on the deck. They wanted a drink of water.

Toodles says, "hurry up mama!! I'm a thirsty boy." He is six years old now and Matilda is five. Time sure flies when we are having fun!

"And He walks with me and He talks with me..."

I love this path in the lower garden.

****

A praise report!

My friend John's doctor did an exam last week and told him he no longer has cancer in his prostate. We are giving God glory!!

His doctor told him the cancer is probably somewhere else in his body but we are rebuking that lie of Satan. When God heals us of our illness he does not relocate it!

Thank you Lord God Almighty!

and

Thank you all for your prayers for John.

John thanks you too.
