A time to play

It's biblical you know,

playing.

Well

maybe not,

but when I wrote the title,

it sounded like the chapter in

Ecclesiastes

"A time to plant...

A time to HEAL..

A time to tear down and a time to build,

A time to weep

and a time to LAUGH,"

Yeah, laugh!  It's in the Bible!

"A time to mourn and a time to DANCE.

A time to embrace...

A time to keep and a time to throw away,

a time to search and a time to give up.

A time to be silent and a time to speak.

A time to LOVE...

A time for

PEACE."

This garden was one of those places.

A garden of old metal,

flowers in unusual places.

Pieces of whimsy

that jumped 

out at you.

While traveling with my teenagers

last spring,

we stopped at Necessities in Hutchinson, KS.

They waited in the car

for mom to look at one more antique store.

I had to come back and get them

for a photo shoot, I was so inspired!

and the funniest thing happened....

they loved it!

They played.

There was a graveyard of old

VW's.

My daughter has wanted a hippie bus

forever.

You should have heard her squeal as she

took off running!

Don't forget to take time to play.

Enjoy those moments,

those ordinary ones

can easily turn into

EXTRAORDINARY moments.

play hard,

deedee
