MAY -

Oh, my, where did April go?? Sometimes in the cold of winter we feel it will never be warm again - and, here we are, temperatures in the high 80s and the 90s in the forecast for next week!!

We have lots of Birthdays this month. My oldest daughter, Vicki, has a birthday today, the 9th. My youngest son, Gordon, celebrates the 21st and the middle son, Geoff, will be a year older on the 29th. Then my grandson in-law, Jonathan, has a birthday the 27th and my ...

We have lots of Birthdays this month. My oldest daughter, Vicki, has a birthday today, the 9th. My youngest son, Gordon, celebrates the 21st and the middle son, Geoff, will be a year older on the 29th. Then my grandson in-law, Jonathan, has a birthday the 27th and my great-grandson, Aiden, will be 3 the 29th.

I have tried to focus on a special goal each month - and for the month of May it is to be thankful to God for all He has continued to shower me with each day. I am truly amazed as I look back over my life and all the times He has provided and protected me.

Knitting is becoming an addiction!! I now have quite a collection of patterns that I just have to make. Loving the knitting group that I meet with each week - so much fun. We even had a full page in the paper last week - with pictures and all!!

Hi Barb. I want to thank you for stopping by and commenting on my photo "I Am". I love this message, and it keeps me grounded and uplifted, being reminded that I am a child of God, created by Him, just the way He intended.

I hope you enjoy your study, and I hope you had a lovely evening with your son.

Have a beautiful week!

Keli

Good morning Barb, hope you're fit and well.

Lots of sunshine this morning but it's still cold and windy and we've had a frost again. I've managed to do a bit in the garden and DH has planted his potatoes and cabbages but it's still way too cold to do anything much. All the early spring flowers have just decided to bloom now though there's not much growth on the trees and hedges, it's so weird seeing them that you forget it's almost May.

I've a commitee meeting for the WI today, I've organised a 'Puffin Cruise' to see the birds on their cliff nests for the beginning of July and we need to finalise things. I've booked the whole boat, seats 150 people, and I'm now feeling a bit easier about the whole thing as tickets have gone really well...in fact I'm now looking forward to going on it!

Hope you have a wonderful day, take care emoticon
