Pink Saturday and Today's Flower. Appreciation


Philippine Small Flower
( Fuchsia Pink)

To appreciate His greatness
in every corner of our world..

To stop for a while and look at the flower...
By Regina



"I love to think of nature as an unlimited
broadcasting station, through which
God speaks to us every hour,
if we will only tune in."

George Washington Carver



"When you take a flower in your hand
and really look at it,

its' your world for the moment."
George

Regina..I love these! Did you photo shop the second one? That is awesome! You have so many beautiful pictures. Using one as your header isn't as hard as you think. Go into your layouts (then where it says header)..click the x to shrink and if you want it behind your (Daily Living) or instead. Anyway, hit the browser and go into your pictures then choose one. Anyway..I'm not trying to simplify things or make like it's so easy..you wouldn't believe the trouble I have that others don't..ha..let me know ok!? Have a great weekend Regina-
