Hello May
1.
May’s First Glimpse — What is the very first thing you
notice or feel when May arrives each year?
May is a beautiful month, the spring flowers are in full bloom, the sun shines yet it’s not too hot to enjoy being outside. It’s a great month for porch sitting and swing swaying
2. Simple May Joys — What small pleasures
do you look forward to in May — flowers, breezes, routines, or traditions?
I always look forward to pleasant days on the
porch, it's so quiet and peaceful, with pretty flowers and a bird or two stopping by, sitting on the fence waiting for Mr D to load the bird feeders. Some
mornings I have my first sip of morning coffee out there and enjoy being in the presence of the Lord.
As I watch the yard wake up, I feel God whispering,
“Be still — enjoy this.”
3.May Memories —
Do you have a favorite May memory from childhood, family life, or recent years?
A great memory, on Memorial Day weekend,
1972, we moved into our home on Catlett Lane, where we lived for 35 years. I
still miss the warmth there, so full of fun times and sad times and the best of
times.
4.May Intentions — What gentle goals or
hopes do you carry into this new month?
Our quarterly family luncheon is this month;
Tammy and Bo will be hosting in their lovely home.
By Annette Wynne:
If I could stay up late no doubt
I'd catch the buds just bursting out;
And up from every hidden root
Would jump a tiny slender shoot;
I wonder how seeds learn the way,
They always know the very day—
The pretty, happy first of May;
If I could stay up then, no doubt
I'd catch the buds just bursting out.
Annette Wynne
Until Next Time
