I love gardening and Gardens , I think it is because God's first choice for our home was in a Garden .I will leave you with this wonderful verse form the Bible .

"The Lord God took them and put them  in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it." Genesis  2:15

My sweet granddaughter Eliana making a face as she gets used to the water temp in pool.

 I love this rainbow which  comes into the family room each sunny afternoon via prism hanging in the window.

 The rainbow reminds me of"The throne of Jesus in Heaven"  depicted in these wonderful Bible Verses recorded by John the apostle while he was captive on the Isle of Patmos  at  around AD 96.

"At once I was in the Spirit, and there  before me  was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it. And the one (Jesus)who sat there
had the appearance  of jasper & carnelian. A rainbow , resembling an emerald, encircled the throne. " Revelation 4:2&3
