Family

Moments like this show how truly and deeply my family has been blessed.

We love each other and accept each other just as we are.

We are just so lucky!

Spring is here

Today started just as any other day: the alarm clock woke me up, I ran into the shower, had a quick breakfast and ran out the door. Destination: WORK. And just as I passed through the door and stepped outdoors I noticed: spring is here and isn't going anywhere for a while.

Flowers everywhere, warmer days, sunny skies. People seem to regain hope and everything seems better with flowers around us.  A new season has begun! Welcome, Spring!!

Flower God, God Of The Spring 

by Robert Louis Stevenson

FLOWER god, god of the spring, beautiful, bountiful,

Cold-dyed shield in the sky, lover of versicles,

Here I wander in April

Cold, grey-headed; and still to my

Heart, Spring comes with a bound, Spring the deliverer,

Spring, song-leader in woods, chorally resonant;

Spring, flower-planter in meadows,

Child-conductor in willowy

Fields deep dotted with bloom, daisies and crocuses:

Here that child from his heart drinks of eternity:

O child, happy are children!

She still smiles on their innocence,

She, dear mother in God, fostering violets,

Fills earth full of her scents, voices and violins:

Thus one cunning in music

Wakes old chords in the memory:

Thus fair earth in the Spring leads her performances.

One more touch of the bow, smell of the virginal

Green - one more, and my bosom

Feels new life with an ecstasy.

Third!

I'm happy to say that I won the third place in this week's photography contest that my local newspaper has!
Here is the photo! I just love his expression!

Given that this weekend I had to travel I wasn't able to cook anything, therefore, I'll try to make it up to you during the week!
Hope you have a great time!

Nostalgic

Sometimes I wonder what goes inside aminals heads. Are they truly listening to our words or only just paying attention to our tone of voice?

Capturing this beautiful dog with my camera and watching his expression, I just know he must be remembering past times...

Spring is coming!

After a very long winter full of sadness and tears, spring is coming and I took advantage of my camera to capture its beginning!!

It is amazing how much a flower can cheer a person up. They always bring a smile to my face no matter how sad I am. So, to cheer all of us up: here are some blooms I found right here at work!
