What Has Been Going On?



Remember this sweet but sad looking daffodil plant?
Here it is today!
It's blooming!!
(Doing a happy dance)



My Hero!
.
Our dryer quit on us.

But not for long.
Thank you Tom!



The Little Free Library 
(click here for the post on the library)

Monica and Jack

This is a neighbor who lives in the apartments behind us.
Monica is the mom and Jack is her two year old son.
They come quite often to play at the library.

Mom: "Jack, let's go to the big park with the slide."
Jack: "I want to go to the library".

So, Mom packs up a backpack full of toys and food.
Mom bring her coffee and then gets a book from the library.
They both are content.
 Sometimes Mom gets in the dirt and plays with Jack.


 I don't know this lady but she comes almost everyday!
I've tried to converse with her but to no avail. 
I have decided to let her enjoy her quiet time.
She has her coffee and just sits for about an hour.

We get so many visitors everyday. 
Some come for a book.
Others drop off books.
Some just to look
and
some to sit!

    So proud of your dryer repair man! You know that I love that husband of mine to pieces, but I don't think he could fix an appliance to save his life. (Shhh... don't tell him I said that.)

    As to Mom and Jack and the rest of your visitors to the free little library? I just love that too.

    I love seeing your daffodil blooming. There's hope that someday I'll see flowers again too. That's great that Tom can fix things. It sure saves time and money! And of course I love the library. Especially that it's being used.

    It is always nice to have your own handyman that can fix appliances. I like the hearts around him.

    And, as always, I really like your library ministry. What a great idea!
