Having Tea with a bumble bee...



Why do women like flowers so much?
I've thought about this question and I think I have a clue to the answer.

I think it is because we were created in a garden. Our heritage began there among the flowers and plants with God. I think our hearts ache for it...to be back where life began.

They always catch my eye...flowers.
Whether growing along the roadside or on a teacup.


They are a visual delight. So many textures and colors, even fragrances!


I'm amazed at the things God created for us to tend...and the thought that His first choice for us was a garden. He looked at it and said, "It is good."

What could be more perfect than flowers and teacups...having tea in a garden?


With the bumble bees and butterflies.

I agree with God...it is good.

  3. I've never thought about the reason we love flowers but I like your thought. You take such beautiful pictures. I can picture you drinking tea from one of your special teacups, your Bible by your side.

    Have a beautiful week,
