Sunshine Fun

Today it has felt like spring.

The sun is shining and it is glorious.

We met up with some friends and went to the Hamilton Gardens for the tulip festival. Perfect place to go when you want to burn off energy from 5 children, 11yr old, 6 yr old and 3 4yr olds.

All around the garden was tulips in bloom. There was also a few stalls at the pavilion selling Dutch items but we spent most of our time wandering round our usual favorite spots in the Gardens taking heaps of pictures. There are even some of me! I had to keep asking the family to take pictures because like all bloggers we never actually end up in the pictures because we are always taking the pictures!

Our good friends Lisa, Cameron, Hollie and Nathan were with us and we had an awesome time.

Sunday Prayer

Dear Lord,

Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:

God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm
And safe from harm.

For they're so close to me.

And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do;
Hope you don't mind me asking,

Please bless my computer too.

Now I know that it's unusual
To Bless a motherboard,
But listen just a second
While I explain it to you, Lord.

You see, that little metal box
Holds more than odds and ends;
Inside those small compartments
Rest so many of my friends.

I know so much about them
By the kindness that they give,
And this little scrap of metal
Takes me in to where they live.

By faith is how I know them
Much the same as you.
We share in what life brings us
And from that our friendships grew.

Please take an extra minute
From your duties up above,
To bless those in my address book
That's filled with so much love.

Wherever else this prayer may reach
To each and every friend,
Bless each e-mail inbox
And each person who hits 'send'.

When you update your Heavenly list
On your own Great CD-ROM,
Bless everyone who says this prayer
Sent up to GOD.Com

Amen
