That's 110 degrees in the shade. We fairly roasted alive in these here parts... little pond shrinking before our eyes... it's a sad, sad state of affairs, this Texas July!
Even the bees are struggling to find nectar in this world of brittle and brown...
(One small, purple blessing... so grateful for the stubborn,
flowering tenacity of the Texas Chaste Tree!)
flowering tenacity of the Texas Chaste Tree!)
But then to add misery upon misery,
... all the way to Texas!!
Struggling to find Blessing in the hot, dry, arid wind and brown haze hanging. The sand sifted in relentlessly and the infernal sun baked us!
No, no, the Blessing of this July arrived late one evening, all wrapped in pink and sweet...
Baby Ellie is here!
Treasured Bundle in our arms...
This Memaw and Pepaw are smitten!
If ever there was a Blessing this July,
Baby Ellie is it...
God is good like that.
Just when the heat and the hard, dry season has seared a soul,
along comes this breath of precious life
to show us what Love is all about!
Forever and Always
you will be loved Sweet Ellie,
Blessed to hold you in our arms and hearts this day!
