aren't these lovely? a present from one of my young cousins ... one of those things that makes me smile ... i love flowers ...
the last days of 2010 ... and the beginning of 2011 ... have been very very nice ... we've had company every other day ... family/friends ... all folks who brightened our home with their visits ... *huge smile* ...
i'm not in the blogging mode, as i type this ... but i just wanted to post something 'cause my blog buds are friends (after so many years!) and i don't want to lose touch with you guys ... plus i noticed that i had only posted 48 times last year ... not much, eh? ... i will try not to fade into the night of cyber space ... poetic eh? *grin* ...
my lack of posting seems to say i don't have anything to share about my life and my Lord - but i do ... His mercies are new every morning and He encourages me to lean on Him ... which i've been doing ... i think i have just been distracted in the past while, lost in thought sometimes ... and i'm sure that maria's death in july has played a part in my reflective, quiet spirit ...
yup - there is a season for everything under heaven ... i do pray that 2011 might have a season of pure joy in it ... for us all ... blessings on ya!

Happy New Year to you, dear Saija,
I hope it must be a year full of blessings.
You had a tough time in the months before Maria died too.Recovery and soorow take time and shall have time.
The flowers for New Year was sovery special and artistic made.
I can clearly see why you do appreciate them.

Happy new year to you, Saija! I confess I'm being a little selfish when I say I'm praying that God will give you tons of stuff to blog about this year. :) I've missed hearing from you because like you said, we are friends here in Blogland! Hugs, Debra
I pray this bright new year
brings some relief for your
husband from the constant
pain and that both of you
have a fresh touch from the
Lord to sustain and encourage
you.
Hugs,
Sandy
Hi Saija! I don't think you did bad last year - that's almost once a week, and you did have quite a bit going on. I'll enjoy seeing you again this year and hearing what God is doing in your life.
Your resolute faith amidst trials has inspired me not to give up.
The flowers were gorgeous! As much as they brightened my day I can only imagine the level of joy they must have brought to you.
Happy New year. Grace and peace to you
Hello Sistah!!
I don't think you have to worry about your friends in blog land...we're here no matter how often you blog.
Those flowers are so pretty. Was there a special occasion or just plane old "because we love you" flowers"?
No matter how often you post, I'll be here!
Hugs....
Always good to hear your sweet words.
Blessings to you too!
Lovely... the flowers.
You are, too, of course. :)
Happy 2011.
Happy New Year Saija!! It has been a long while since I dropped in for a refreshing visit with you! How could I be so remiss??!! I will be dropping by on a much more regular basis, my friend!
Now I'm going to sit back, enjoy my cup while getting caught up in your archives. Blessings to you, (((Saija)))!!
