It's Really Nifty....(to not finish that phrase)

You may have thought I didn't see,

Or that I hadn't heard,

Life lessons that you taught to me,

But I got every word.

Perhaps you thought I missed it all,

And that we'd grow apart,

But Dad, I picked up everything,

It's written on my heart.

Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be

The (woman)(man) I am today;

You built a strong foundation

No one can take away.

I've grown up with your values,

And I'm very glad I did;

So here's to you, dear father,
From your forever grateful kid.

Happy Birthday, Dad!

Until next time,

You Are My Sunshine

So this past weekend, my cousin, Maggie, got married in Hesston, KS.

I went up a few days early to hang out with her and help set up the reception.

As I was talking to my aunt the day before the wedding, she made a comment about having not seeing a sunflower at all in Kansas.

(Kansas being known as the sunflower state, you know)

And then, I was coming from the Wall Mall...

and here is what I saw.

Miles of beautiful sunflowers!

They were gorgeous!

And it was so peaceful to look at the fields.

All worries went away and a sense of calm came over me.

Magnificent.

That is the only word to describe this experience.

Until Next Time,

TOODLES!
