A beautiful peony from a friend's garden. It smells wonderful too.

Spending time with my daughter and great-granddaughter (whose picture I'm not allowed to post). Their shoes are in that pile.

Meeting a friend for lunch at Chick-fil-A. Their signs always make me smile.

45

A Mothers Day gerbera.

44

Being able to attend my grandson's graduation from Shepherd yesterday.
