My iTunes: How Beautiful

At 68 degrees...Spring has sprung around here...at least for now! These crocus blooms popped up yesterday after being shut for a week or so. It was worth the weeks wait. Their color is stunning.

At church this morning, I listened about servanthood and humility. A woman sang "How Beautiful" by Twila Paris. Not normally by style or speed but it was sung with so much feeling. It really put my heart and soul where it needed to be this morning to start off my week.

Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend regardless of the season you are in!

This is a beautiful flower photo. I haven't found any purple ones yet, just white and yellow.

No flowers here either! "How Beautiful" was sung at my wedding and ALWAYS pulls at my heart and soul.

Anna I was riding in mid 70 degree temps today...pure heaven! I'm sure we're going to have a few more cold snaps here but I think I hear the fat lady singing on winter time here in the states.

Thanks for the beautiful flower photo!

'how beautiful' has always been one of my favorite twila paris songs.

lovely crocus... they used to be the first to pop up in my flower beds at our old house... i'd always wait anxiously for them.
