Ever present

This picture represents last Friday morning.  I wanted to write about it then, but it was a very sore topic!  Let me go back a little.  First, I love, love, love my mornings!  Morning is when I spend time with Jesus.  Mornings to me are, Jesus, my bible, coffee, sunrises, peace, and joy!  Another thing that brings me joy is my beautiful pet mini pig...Patsy Swine!  She is sweet and beautiful and funny!  She brightens my day, and usually my morning. Friday morning was a little bit different.  I woke up at 5am as usual.  Stretched.  Smelled the coffee brewing, as it was set on auto brew.  I walked down the stairs.  Patsy Swine was there to greet me as usual.  You see, she gets breakfast first, so that I can enjoy my quiet time in peace.  However, Friday morning she wasn't as excited for breakfast as she usually is.  And, as I walked in to the dining room I realized exactly why.  My purse was strewn across the floor...empty.  She had consumed my lip gloss, my ibuprofen, my cough

You love me anyway! (Sidewalk Prophets)
