I woke up not feeling well today. My throat and body ached. I thought I would press through but the harder I tried the more I realized I would have to rest.  When I walked into my kitchen after lunch, the red tulips I had purchased earlier in the week were in full bloom and shining. I walked over to them and spritzed them with a little water intending to photograph them and I found this little lady clinging to a petal. I am not sure she wanted a bath, but she got one. The next 15 minutes made me forget about being sick as I followed her with my camera around and around the glistening perimeters of the flowers. She was fast but would stop to rest (or drink) once in awhile. Everyone needs a visit from a cheerful friend when they are not feeling well. Today, I got to visit with a lady bug.

 

Grateful for the little things today. God always knows just what I need. He brought my 365 project to my kitchen table and and gladness to my heart.
