Last weekend the neighbors invited us to pick some of their raspberries and blackberries (I snagged a couple strawberries too). They had already picked several gallons, and there definitely more then just several gallons left on all those bushes. They said we would be doing them a favor. I thought that that this was going to be the best "favor" I've done for someone in awhile.
The neighbor showed us around his beloved garden, telling us about every plant, and the work that went into it. I just kept thinking.. this is what I always pictured the garden to look like from The Secret Garden. The neighbor has been retired for awhile now, and this is how he decides to spend his time. Being outside, caring for his plants, always improving on what is already lovely. He seems pretty content to me, and I think thats cool.
I can't believe its already July. Time is flying! But its going slowly too... The day that things are going to change forever is coming closer and closer, I don't think its sunk in yet.
If you think of Cory and I you could still pray for us please. Things are still very much undecided. We're taking a huge blind jump of faith together. Some days I feel like we're just jumping into a really big hole, but other days I'm very confident that we'll land on something wonderful.
Happy new month people!
