May 11, 2025 Bloom where you're planted

 

The flower above was recycled from an event at the school last year.  Purchased as table decor and then given out to whoever would take them afterward, #L who was on the cleanup crew, brought one home to her mama.  A week or so ago it bloomed and has given us this lovely flower to enjoy.  

On this Mother's Day, I'm reminded of #D in the context of the old phrase, "Bloom where you are planted."  She has epitomized that saying as a faithful mom in every spot we have called home and mirrored the natural beauty above..sometimes in not so lovely places.  Thankful for her and Godly mothers in our lives as well as all you moms around the globe, blooming where God has planted you.   Schonnen MutterTag (Happy Mother's Day).
