It’s exhausting when you have to spend half the night trying to rouse someone – anyone -to get up and pay attention to you.

When morning comes this poor overworked kitty finally gives up and hunkers down for a nice and much-needed nap.

Without fail my Christmas tree invokes a sense of peace and relaxation. During this busy and hectic time of year I relish a quiet morning – or evening – spent gazing upon the colored lights and ornaments filled with memories. Today, the rain outside, the animals and the fireplace were an added bonus.

This weeks photo challenge is Mornings.
Often I find a good morning will set the tone for the day and spectacular sunrises are always a good sign. Add in some critters and coffee and I’m reminded, once again, of how great God is.
Stunning Skies

Coffee and Flowers

It’s a good morning!
A beautiful and perfect spring day resulted in a 3 mile walk around town. And, even though Allen, Texas is a busy place there was no shortage of solitude found.
This dove looked a little lonely.

The turtle was having a little mid-morning adventure.

And a duck found a water-filled ditch to have a little swim.

You would never guess the amount of traffic surrounding this little oasis of abandoned tracks.

The tracks provided a treasure of wild blackberries.

And, that resulted in this delicious blackberry cobbler for dessert.

I love my little town.
