Fall

Fall is a lovely time of the year. 

         These things make me happy... 

• cool breezes coming from the sky, dotted with puffy clouds
• the colorful leaves slowly drifting into scattered piles
• the fresh cornucopias of harvest blessings
• Halloween costumes 
• bags and bags of candy
• homemade soup steaming on the stove
• pumpkin pie and apple crisp
• Candy corn mixed with salty peanuts
• girl's  weekend up north
• visiting local orchards- fresh donuts and honeycrisp apples
• Scarecrows and corn husks decorating the light posts
• Jack-o-lanterns lit on the porch
• long walks in the cool evenings

Autumn is wonderful...if I were a bird, I'd fly all around the globe, roosting in all the 'autumns' of the world.

      Things I don't love about autumn...

• MEAP tests
• knowing the cold and snow of winter is right around the corner
• late sunrises and early sunsets

Fortunately for me...the positives far out weigh the negatives of Autumn.   Let's enjoy the few days we have left of God's beauty.

Pure beauty...
