A Valuable Lesson!


These two shared a valuable lesson with me today.  Even though the calendar says spring we are still receiving snow.  Sarge and Shelby showed me that instead of moping around one needs to enjoy it.
Too often one can allow certain circumstances to steal the joy of the moment.   So glad my two friends did not.
Hope you too savored the day in spite of the weather.   Have a great week!  

 "The Lord has done it...let us rejoice today and be glad."  Psalm 118:24 (NIV)

  3. I savored the day * because* of the weather! It rained last night and everything sparkled every time the sun peeked out from behind the clouds. Darling photos of your darling dogs enjoying the patches of snow!

    Blessings, Victoria

  5. We had snow last weekend I think it was and I hadn't heard of anyone else getting any. It is starting to feel like spring just has no intention of making an appearance! I guess we hit 60 yesterday. A few more days like that and we might actually see those crocuses and leaf buds make an appearance. But mope about the weather? I only do that in the summer when it is so hot and humid that I feel just walking out the door is a chore. Glad your babies lifted your spirits and showed you the joy in the day!

  6. Oh this is adorable, my dog rolls around on the ground too and had a chance to roll in the snow too, we had a couple of snowstorms this year, we don't get much in NC. So glad your dogs are helping you appreciate the day, hopefully warmer temps. are coming your way though :)

  7. Hello Debbie, we are seeing patches of grass now too after two days of rain. I dare say if it had been a bit colder and it was two days of snow you wouldn't be able to see my house. It has been a banner year for snow here. The sun is out today and it is about 35 degrees....guess what, I'll take it. Your dogs sure look like they know how to enjoy their day. Blessings!

  16. You do seem to be having a long winter over there this year. Hope it is over soon for you. Loved your little warbler painting further down. We have a few over here but I can never tell which they are as their markings are very similar. Hopefully you will get all the summer visiting birds soon with the coming of warmer weather. Keep well till next time dear Debbie. xx
