But already it has won me over, and continues to each passing day. The beauty feels more impressive to me because it's so surprising. Thanks for this post, my sentiments exactly!!

It is evident that you are able to allow yourself to be fully consumed in the beauty of nature surrounding you, and allow it to guide you in reflecting on a life of important lessons and teachings.<br />Thanks for sharing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288778153586473465.post-88075329341235392382013-03-19T08:42:24.102-04:002013-03-19T08:42:24.102-04:00I visited here a number of years ago.

For an Iowa girl arriving after a long winter it was a treat. I remember arriving back home and looking at the grass greening up along the roadsides and wondered "how do they water all this?!" Grass of course in Phoenix being watered mostly by periodic flooding by the city.<br />Steve your post also speaks to the importance of exposing children to nature. I don't mean scheduled activities either but flat our fun play.<br />Thanks!Susannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288778153586473465.post-25882034353126744852013-03-18T10:15:15.312-04:002013-03-18T10:15:15.312-04:00Funny, I was just going through photos trying to d...Funny, I was just going through photos trying to decide which ones to include in my post about this garden (how will I ever choose?).
