I love the dancing in the second video, wish I could move like that, hehe. As always, Thanks for hosting this week!!! Have a great holiday!!!
What’s inspiring me this week? Nature! God’s creation! I just returned to my mountain home after being with my mom for two weeks. I’ve traveled today from the ocean to the peaks! And all of it is beautiful. Including the brand new baby deer I saw at our watering trough tonight. He (she?) and Mommy were just precious!
GOD BLESS!
