Happy Monday!


I'm starting out our week with these lovely flowers. A professional I'm not, but I absolutely love taking pictures, and flowers are my favorite subject. I could photograph flowers all day. Flowers have it all. They are colorful, and cheerful. They come in a vast array of mind-boggling variety. They smell amazing. And each and every flower is a little miracle in and of itself. LOVE. FLOWERS.

Well, call me crazy but Monday is my favorite day of the week. I enjoy Fridays like everyone else, because of course I look forward to the weekend. Unless it's one of those "have to" weekends filled with obligations. Those stink. But as much as I like Fridays, I'm still partial to Monday. Just think about it. With the weekend at an end, you've just completed an overdose of family togetherness and hours of church and social activities. You've kept track of your kid's nonstop comings and goings at all hours of the day and night, and grilled cheeseburgers for them and all their friends. You've grocery shopped and successfully navigated Lowes. You've refereed boys pummeling each other and shooting each other with air soft guns. You've endured every obnoxious sound imaginable from video games and guitars. You even enjoyed some rousing games of Uno until all the cards started flying. Sure, you've worked on a few projects and you've written a few e-mails, but it's taken you the entire weekend because you've been interrupted 40 million times. By Monday morning, you are so ready to kiss your beloved family goodbye, lock the door, read your scriptures, pick up the aftermath of the weekend, get your bowl of Ruffles and your glass of diet Coke, and enjoy seven hours of peace! LOVE. MONDAY.
