I BELIEVE IN MAGIC

And above all,
watch with glittering
eyes the whole
world around you
because the greatest
secrets are always
hidden in the most
unlikely places.
Those who don't
believe in magic
will never find it.

~ Ronald Dahl

The weekend started on Friday
when I made a long drive to
pick up my favorite little five
year old to spend the night.

I white knuckled it, holding
tight to the steering wheel as
the rain down poured, having
to pull over 20 minutes from
the house when I couldn't see
one foot in front of me. 
I think I've told you how much
I dislike driving and I have no
words to describe just how much
I dislike driving in the rain!

Saturday morning we were out
early to pick dandelion flowers
before Emerson's mommy and
daddy arrived to take her and
Uncle Alex to the beach.
We  had time to add a flower
to the nest a mama wren built
on top of a saw,  race up and
down the drive and laugh, a lot,
and make up some wonderful tales.
Yes, I believe in magic....do you?

My daylilies are starting to bloom,
my favorite flower. Right after I
took this photo the rain came down
and my gardening work came to
a stop so I spent the rest of the
afternoon knitting.

I finished one knitting project
and started another which is
always a thrill.

Today a cold front has been blowing
bringing with it lower humidity and
cooler temperatures.  I don't have
any plans except to knit, read, maybe
nap and enjoy my day, I hope you do
too.

Weekending with Karen.
