Lovely picture

Hello everyone - I just got an email from a friend and I had to post one of the sayings from it (since I could NOT get the picture to upload properly).  It's about dogs.  Gee, now why would you think I would be interested in that?  :-)  It's just sweet and says a lot in a little space:

Man's Best Friend
"A dog has no use for fancy cars,
big homes, or designer clothes.
A water logged stick will do just fine.
A dog doesn't care if you're rich or poor,
clever or dull, smart or dumb.
Give him your heart
and he'll give you his.
How many people can you say that about?
How many people can make you feel
rare and pure and special?
How many people can
make you feel extraordinary?"
                                              - John Grogan

No matter how warm it is, Sammy loves the pool deck!
And then, when I think about the word "extraordinary", and say it with a hyphen (EXTRA-ORDINARY!), I look at that last sentence again and really think about it!  God MADE us extraordinary but somehow early in life we lose the ability to behave that way and/or let our family and friends know that THEY are extraordinary!  Sometimes it takes our dogs to do that!  We should learn from them....

That's all for today.  Of course, I have to leave you with my pictures for the day.  The sun was absolutely beautiful here in SW Florida today and the orchids are in bloom! 



Love that sunshine coming through the petals!  Have a beautiful week everyone!
