It's the Little Things that Matter #11

Hello everyone,
I have been drying my hydrangea blooms. HERE
It all started the other day when I was cutting all
the blooms off my prize hydrangea bushes in the garden.

This summer has flown by and now it's time to put the umbrella away

for another year. During the summer the sun moves, and the hydrangeas are completely out of the blistering sun for another year.

I found a couple of quotes to share with you.

The kiss of the sun for pardon,

The song of the birds for mirth,

One is nearer God's heart in the garden

Than anywhere else on earth.

DOROTHY FRANCES GURNEY (1858-1932)

REMEMBER this, - that very little is needed 

to make a happy life.

Marcus Aurelius

Hope you have a great week!

Joyously,

Betty
