PhotoGood morning from the Guest House. If you click on the link above it will take you to a recap of the creation of the Guest House. With the devastation that continues to unfold in Japan I reflect on fleeting moments which of course is all anything is anyway and give thanks for this very moment that I have the privilege of sitting here writing to you.
This little Guest House gave me the opportunity to be close to my Mom in her last few years here on earth. For that opportunity I thank my sweet Father for having the fore site to buy this little cottage behind his beautiful house and allowing Dana and I to transform it back to its glorious self. Many happy moments were shared here with Mom and I can still see her beautiful smiling face enjoying those sweet times. What a blessing those precious memories are.
Thank you for coming by. I hope the tour of the Guest House is a pleasant break from the saddness we are all feeling for the people in Japan and the world as we continue to pray for those in harms way.
Blessings and much love,
Sue

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteI know my heart aches for those people !!!
I remember when you did over the cottage...you and Dana did a fantastic job, I hope she and her boys are well !!!
I have had my Mum living with me for the past couple of months, she just recently went back home so I've been away from blogging.
Happy Spring,
