There are so many things about each of the seasons that I enjoy, but there is something in particular about springtime that stirs something deep within me.
I guess its like seeing old friends after a long, long time. "Hello grass, its so nice to see you again!" Mattie sure was happy to see the green stuff again. There is nothing like a good role in fresh spring grass!
I think Sweetie Pie, our beloved family pitbull, missed the gerass too. People who think that pitbulls are merciless killers have been grossly misinformed; it is people who are merciless killers. Pitbulls like Sweetie however, are mild-mannered, pillow loving, cuddly, cover-hogging, grass-rolling, big-lipped lick you all over, tough as nails, members of the family. And she absolutely LOVES SPRINGTIME!
This is Max the Beagle...
This is Mattie riding Max the Beagle. A year ago, Mattie had just turned one, which was far too young for riding beagles. But now, she is two, and being two plus being springtime equals beagle rides (Pitbull rides are also popular).
Here is Mama and Mattie in the grass. Sadly, a lot of people, when they get home from work, sit down in front of the hell-a-vision Nothing gives me greater joy than watching my wonderful family play together in the grass in the springtime!
Here is me with a very happy Max the Beagle in my lap, in the grass, in the springtime.
Its amazing all the ordenary, every day little things we have to be thankful for when we take the time to be. So many times we, self included, forget how wonderful life is really.
To Quote the great Captain Agustus McRae, played by Robert Duvall, in Lonesome Dove - "If you want any one thing too badly, it's likely to turn out to be a
disappointment. The only healthy way to live life is to learn to like all the
little everyday things, like a sip of good whiskey in the evening, a soft bed, a glass of buttermilk, or a feisty gentleman like myself."
Here sis hoping God grants you the contentment to enjoy the little everyday blessings you encounter today.
