Month: January 2026
Sunrise, Rain, and Working at Blessings of Hope
Wednesday Morning, January 14 I went outside to get a few sunrise pictures before getting dressed for the day. As I stood on our porch taking pictures, I was surprised to feel raindrops. It seemed like we should be seeing a rainbow, but that didn’t happen. This was a day we signed up to volunteer […]
A Beautiful Evening
Monday, January 12 at 5:23 pm When the sunset reflected in our windows, I knew it was time to walk outside and investigate. First, I noticed an X in the sky. Was someone playing a game of Jacks or Tic Tac Toe? 🙂 I forgot the name of airplane trails, so googled it. I learned […]
