Saturday Snapshot 3/2

At Home with Books hosts Saturday Snapshot.

Today's photo looks like a pretty still life, but it has more significance than that. It's a representation of the kindness of our friends. We have had a really rough month, with my son struggling with infections, recovery from knee surgery, and a bad flare-up of his chronic illness. But we are blessed with kind and thoughtful friends. One brought over a bag of goodies for my son, to cheer him up. And a neighbor brought these beautiful flowers and a loaf of homemade bread - and, yes, it tasted as good as it looks! Many others have called to see how he is doing. We are grateful for such wonderful friends.






Hope you are having a great weekend!

Isn't life wonderful when people rally round to show support when you need it. Small things like the flowers and the home-made bread mean such a lot. My Snapshot is at http://goo.gl/ZoRZX

Friends bring new life and love. They are the dawn that brings the fresh day.

A beautiful still life. Ilike that added touch of a slice bread.
