Yellow Bells From Heavens Hand
cant help but trust they will survive and thrive
During the hot summer months came by my way a wonderful Sunset SW planting volume. This plant stood out as one on my dream list of 'some day'. The day was today. On Craig's list they were free. A greater gift however was to come. As I was loading three of the six up in the truck another woman pulled up with a car.
See the high lighted plant in the book.
It was highlighted and I remember saying to Abba. I don't know how we could buy it but it sure would be cool if...
She asked do you live near here? On the affirmative we spoke of children we both have 6th graders in the same school. She just transferring from the school they closed. I had her load the others and followed her to her home. She was in a car and had thought the plants were small. No way for her to have received them and get them home. She was so thankful. We both have so many things in common. Grinding our own meat, I making and she selling jewelery. It was really funny.So a new friend was made. She was invited for tea. She is new to our country relatively. Speaks very Middle Eastern dialect broken English. She said as she welcomed me in to her home. I am a Christian. Smiling I spoke how I love God with all my heart soul and mind. I am one too. We smiled.
She had the most beautiful iconic images on her wall. We spoke of the wonderful images in Russia. She also has a good friend who is from Russia.
What fun.
My daughter actually knows her daughter..."every one is always saying how beautiful she is, and C. this and C that..."
Small small world.
All for a simple act of generosity (the trees) kindness and hospitality.
