Nel bought me this lady statue, and I filled it with silk hydrangeas from Michaels. It looks pretty in my bathroom. *statue is from Pier 1 Imports.
Jess' mother-in-law's carrot cake. It's the best cake I've ever had, really. Nel calls the frosting "little white fluffy clouds of goodness" haha.
Living in a railroad town, I often hear the train whistle blowing in the distance, even from my home, which is a few miles away.
I couldn't resist this doll for Francesca.
This flower has always fascinated me. Look at the detail on the petals. Any one know its name?
My brother sent me some veggies from his garden. I scrambled some eggs with the chili peppers, and it was so good. My dad would be pleased he has a garden, as he had one also.
Sprinklers
A beautiful sunrise one morning.

The flowers are wilting now.
Fall is a comin'.
Me and best friend met for lunch a couple weeks ago. It was nice to catch up.
Shadows
We have the most ordinary birds around here, but they are still sweet.
I found a mermaid along the shore of the beach.
Baby roses
Speaking of baby.....
Nel had her baby!
It was a long labor, 22 hours.
We are so happy this little one
is with us now.
Please welcome to the world,
baby Mia.

Now that carrot cake has my mouth watering! Thank you for sharing your birds. The second photo of one is quite different and not ordinary at all. I need to look him up!

Welcome, little Mia! I'm so happy for your family. She and her cousin will have so much fun, won't they? Two little girls to spoil now, Sheri, you must be in heaven right now. Lots of beauty around you, captured beautifully with your camera. Yum to that carrot cake! And I hear a train coming through about midnight if I'm awake, love hearing the whistle blown. I'm not sure where it is, probably several miles but I love the sound of it.
Best to you and your growing family,
Dewena

Oh no!!! I am trying not to bake and now I want cake soooo bad.

OHHHHHH! Congratulations, Sheri! Mia is precious and Nel looks HAPPY! What a pleasant walk with you my friend....as I see your photos and read your gentle words, all I can say is that I wish you were with me here, or I with you over there. To take photos and allow the surroundings to stir your heart, it is such a fantastic thing. Your world is beautiful, and even more so because you are in it.
you capture beauty in life..
i especially love the picture
of your daughter with her
new baby...
the name .. ♥mia♥ is especially
dear to me as its meaning
is *dear one*. purely precious.
I love your pics,
you seem to capture even the simplest
of things and make them look special,
and of course your words that describe them
gives each pic a wonderful narrative
to share with your readers.
Oh, Baby Mia looks so adorable,
she is and will always be such a blessing to your family
and to all the people she will encounter.
Have a wonderful day ♥

MAMA MIA! MAMA MIA! She's here! Oh Sheri. She is another beauty, like her Mama, auntie, and Grammie. Now the joy will begin. I am so happy for ALL of you. So glad the birth is over for Nel. Now she has a precious little treasure to fill her days. Sheri, your heart must be overflowing with love. Beautiful post, just beautiful. I love the names Mia as well as Francesca. Are you helping at Nel's house? God bless each and every one of you, including the newest little angel, Mia. Susan

I love carrot cake, it is my favorite.
Congratulations to all!! What a wonderful photo of baby and Mom.
P.S that mermaid you found, CUTE AS CAN BE! xx oo
Welcome to the wonderful world, Mia. I've always loved that name. What a beautiful mother and daughter picture. Priceless. Sheri, I love your picture with your best friend ...and that mermaid. teehee Love the blue hydrangea-haired lady, and the detailed petal flower is a favorite of mine too, but I don't know its name. I remember photographing one a while back.
You are a beautiful soul, my huckleberry friend.
xo
I had been afraid to ask about the baby. It seemed like it should have been here but then what do I know. I was never sure. And I was so worried something might be amiss. I'm glad Mia has entered the world, beautiful like her mom. She and her sweet cousin are going to have a lot of fun in the years ahead!
I love every photo here -- the lovely vase, the gorgeous birds, the friendship and love.
Such a lovely collection of photographs on your post, and then!
Baby Mia … how wonderful.
Congratulations and my good wishes to all the family.
All the best Jan
Can't believe that you waited to the end of that post to introduce Mia. How adorable...congrats. Mia What? Weight? Love the flowers in the head and I know what you mean about fall coming....feeling it in the air around here. Had a cold front come through last night and it was in the 50s this morn on the deck. Me and the furbabes sat out in my sweater...well, I wore a sweater, they wore their fur. haha..congrats on baby Mia.
Reading this post, I felt like reading a interesting diary describing the transition of time in a day and kind hearts you had felt. Happy days are not far away, just here.
Congratulations to Baby Mia, Sheri!
Strange! The name Mia seems to be popular everywhere now! My cousins daughter was born 5 weeks ago and her name is also Mia. My dog's name by the way is Mia too. :) Easy to remember for me.:)
Oh... so happy for you all and the arrival of sweet baby girl Mia! She's a living doll!
God's Blessings! Net
Congratulations to the newborn baby. It is a wonder. So nice! And thanks for sharing all the other photos. Love the reading girl and the sprinkler- photo.
