This has been the first summer for a while that I have kept up with most of the weeding but obviously not good enough LOL. Have a great weekend.

Dandelion greens are my favorite. Yummy! Thanks for sharing your perspective.

Sigh. I may just wait now for frost to kill them. ha. But yes, some are actually just as beautiful as the “regular” flowers if I’ll just look closely. I’ve always had trouble with accepting distractions as good things, but often they are….

I am reminded of the parable of the weeds growing with the wheat; only God can judge in the end. And, yes, there are weeds in our lives which seem like thorns at first, but turn out to be marvelous blessings. Enjoy the morning glories! Blessings!
