I was inspired to create this lady bug after my son finished painting his DIY train. Using a smooth pebble in the garden, I painted this lady bug. It looks nice in my garden. I'm thinking of making some more.

Month of Hearts

February is the month of hearts. During this month we celebrate Valentine's Day. Remember to express your feelings to the people you love not only on Valentine's Day but as often as you can. To love someone is its own reward.

Accepting Vulnerabilities

"Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength."
~Sigmund Freud~

No one is perfect. Each person has his own strengths and weaknesses. The latter can be a burden if we don't do something about it. We can still be strong despite our vulnerabilities in life. All we have to do is learn to accept our limitations and focus on the things we are good at. There are so many things in life that we can focus our strengths on. If we fail at one thing, don't wallow in defeat. Use it as a challenge to do better next time. Success does not always happen overnight. We need to work hard and exert effort to become good at what we do.

It's my first time to join this meme. I was looking through my archive and saw these old photos. They were taken at the play area in a fast food restaurant a few years ago. My son had a grand time on the green slide.

Treasure Today

"Memories, important
yesterdays, were once todays.
Treasure and notice today.

~Gloria Gaither~

I'm thankful to God for each beautiful morning and peaceful evening. I cherish each wonderful sunrise and admire every glorious sunset.

Little Pleasures

"It isn't the great big pleasures
that count the most; it's
making a great deal out of
the little ones."

~Jean Webster~

I'm grateful for the little pleasures of the heart:

• My son's smile and laughter.
• A snail mail from someone special.
• Comment/s on my blog.
• A delicious meal.
• Delectable dessert.
• Beautiful sunny day.
