Susan,
Praying that things are getting better for you. Been waking up in the middle of the night and have found that is a good time to pray. Actually, it is the only way I can get back to sleep. I figure God is up all night anyway, so I can leave everything in His hands.
:)

I love sunflowers. I always think that I will grow some, but so far that has never happened. I did buy a fake sunflower arrangement today at Michael's. It's not the real thing, but it looks really cute.

Great sunflower! They're such happy flowers! I hope things are getting better for you. I understand about life. Just posting at 3:45pm PDT here because I had to pick my dad up from the hospital and get him settled at home. Life happens.

I love sunflowers! So bright and cheery and standing tall and proud in the garden. Mine are starting to bloom too - isn't summer grand?
Sunflowers make me smile but yours had me grinning from ear to ear!
Susan , hope things are improving!
Thank you for hosting..come back soon..miss you!
Oh I'm just dropping by. Here's me hoping your sunflowers brighten your day and that everything is progressing well.
I have never posted here before but thought I would share the garden shower we had last weekend for my future Daughter-in-law. (one week to go...)
How I love sunflowers! So pretty! I wish I would have planted some. My chickens love them too! lol
Oh I love sunflowers! A friend of my families had huge sunflowers they were so tall! I didn't know they could be giants lol.
All the best,
Allison
Aaaaah! The great outdoors.....my favorite thing :) I so love checking out all the people you have posting on Wednesday's. You're such a great hostess!
Sunflowers are alway so bright and cheery, a true sign that summer is here. Love them. I also wanted to let you know that the next "Cloche Party" is scheduled for Sept. 11th for the Fall season. Grab the button on my sidebar to remind you and to let your friends know. See you there. Hugs, Marty
The sunflower is so pretty. I hope you have a bounty of blossoms. I love to watch them turn their faces toward the sun!
Hi Susan
I'm sorry things are hectic for you. I'm wondering how your MIL is doing. You must be very busy. We're thinking about you. I hope everything gets sorted out and everyone is well again. *hugs*. Take care of you and see you soon we hope.
