The picture above so perfectly fits and describes my story—uphill, downhill, round and round, exciting, and scary, bright spots and dark spots. My “joyful journey” has sometimes been an amazing thrill ride and sometimes just a big downward spiral! But, the emotional, mental, and physical struggles are all part of the story, and through it all, I see clear reflections of God’s amazing grace.

Shades of Fall

I love the colors of fall; they please me--one and all!
The orange and yellow delight me; the red and gold excite me!
Mixed with the various greens—what incredibly brilliant scenes!
I enjoy all those beautiful hues, for each of them I can use.
They blend with my hair, and make me aware that I am an autumn girl.
Born in September, so I’ll always remember that I am an autumn girl.

When fall comes I always think of you--you truly are an "autumn girl"! We had lovely fall colors, but they are gone now--along with clean-up. Bill dug many of the leaves into our garden to provide food for the winter and nourishment for the seeds in spring planting. By the way, your flower pics are amazing.

Good news for us--Doug and Stephanie are expecting in May!! Number 5 for us. Have a great day. Love ya, Sandy
