A Beauty Break

Yesterday my father and I decided to ride along with my husband
 who was making a hospital call (he is a Visitation Pastor)
 So, after the hospital we stopped at the Rose Garden,
one of Fort Wayne's beautiful city parks.
 The roses were past their prime, unfortunately,
 but many other flowers remained.
 All in all, it was a beautiful day...
 well worth taking a break in our day!

 Blue sky,
temperate weather,
health and ability to stroll and see...
 for all this beauty, I am thankful
 and more determined than ever to schedule even more "beauty breaks"
 into my life
and the lives of those I love.
