(kind of like children) all so different but none the less needed...each one. <br />i feel truly fortunate to have found each other...so we can share a small portion or our lives. <br />have a blessed day...in autumn.marmeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622899170079254810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1390830361514010100.post-79340942429527502712009-10-12T17:41:09.233-05:002009-10-12T17:41:09.233-05:00meems,

I have many in my gardens and love their colouration.......<br /><br />Your doggie companions must have a wonderful time walking with Abbey......children are just so much more fun.....<br /><br />I am typing in the sitting room.....thinking of you so many miles away. It has rained again today and I am enjoying it so much.

I enjoyed all your images today illustrating the change of time and season. I didn't know you were growing persian shield... very pretty purple... it's just fun to see something familiar actually. You have so much nature and wildlife right under your nose on your beautiful piece of land... never lacking for wonderment! That Abbey is just cuter and cuter and a good sport for the lens. The dogs are willing subjects, too... I know they love having you guys out and about with them. <br />Happy autumn to you... hugs too.<br />Meems<br />(HA... verification word:heatish... no kidding!!!)Meemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1390830361514010100.post-82768039062348378662009-10-10T18:54:38.671-05:002009-10-10T18:54:38.671-05:00Gorgeous Marmee...Looks like you all have had LOTS...Gorgeous Marmee...Looks like you all have had LOTS of rain also.
