Look Ma....more light....

Have you noticed the ever-so-slight shift from "suppertime in the dark" to "suppertime with a hint of light"? We simply won't need candle light any more...unless, we're having a "special time" with a loved one.:-)

I take note of things like that (daylight vs. darkness) because as Christmas has come and gone for 2008, there is a new longing that takes over now.

A longing for spring. With gentle breezes and new growth and flowers.......sigh.......

But not before at least 100 days of cold, dare I say frigid, winter weather.

But we must cheer up and all that you know. Pip. Pip.

The daylight hours are gaining ground....and one day, we shall have spring.

It's the rhythm of life that God gives us. We rest when it is cold and dark....and go like thunder when it's warm and bright.

So, onward into the beginning of a New Year and all that it will bring to our lives and homes.

But first, a cup of steaming Red Rose.

Ta ta.
