It is the morning of the 4th of July. I have the stomach flew. I always think better when I am sick because I am so grateful for health. I just got home from camp in the nick of time.How wonderful that I didn't have to run three block to the bathroom and sit on a cold dirty floor all night. Blessings from heaven, I crawled in bed with Dad last night, warm and dry and comfortable. Camp was so inspiring to me. I just loved being in this most amazing forest with large quakes that were bent by the wind and snow. We had a fireside where a lady talked about the earth being our mother. I remember hearing Indian Legions about mother earth, but I thought they were just legions. But this lady took her thoughts out of Moses7:48 "And it came to pass that Enoch looked upon the earth; and he heard a voice from the bowel thereof saying: Wo, wo is me, mother of men. . . ."
We talked about our resonsoblity as women to care for those things that surround us.
I have been walking in the yard this morning just looking closer at the beauty that surrounds me. If the earth really is our mother, she is probably trying to teach us something. . . and I want to learn. Happy summer, Happry 4th of July. I love-a love-a love ya!

I love the beautiful pictures of the flowers and your thoughts. We do live in the most beautiful place in the world! Mother Earth is incredible! And you have always had a gift to find it and enjoy it.
