I love fall! All the pretty, bright colors and the yummy goodies and my birthday! Fall is great! I just got back from a bike ride around the neighborhood taking pictures of God's Beautiful Creation. The air is fresh and cool, ahh...bliss!
See what I mean? Beautiful! Now some would say that this is a sad time of year because the trees are going into hibernation and cold is just around the corner, however I like to view it as the grand finale of sorts. Trees have been producing yummy goodness all summer long and now they're saying, "We're done! What a wonderful summer!" Did you know that trees also do a lot of growing during the winter? Think about it...they don't have to put energy into maintaining leaves and fruit, so all their energy is put into growing their trunk and root system. In essence winter for them is a time for growing their structure in order to maintain their leaves and fruit during spring and summer. Our Creator is so cool! He realizes just like trees, that there are seasons in our lives that we need quiet and hibernation in order to have seasons of busyness. In many ways I feel like Handsome and I are in a season of quietness. We don't have a lot of social happenings, and we spend a lot of our time on the road going to meetings or picking up products for the farm...quiet time. I know there will be a time in our lives that we will be very busy, but for the time being I am quite content building the structure of our marriage.
