I'm Alive!

 




I want to thank you all,

for your prayers

and kind thoughts.




It took awhile to get

my lungs cleared

and I still have a dry cough,

but I'm feeling sooooo

much better. 




Good enough to

bake a birthday cake

for a dear friend.






My garden is finally 

starting to grow

and I'm looking forward

to veggies soon.




Again thank you

for your prayers.

I felt the love as

I read each lovely comment.

♥️


God bless you all.

Your blogging sister,

Connie :)

  4. Hi Connie!
    That's such good news! I know what you mean about coughing...allergies trigger a cough, so it comes and goes. Yuk...
    The cake looks scrumptious!!
    Take care and have a Happy 4th!!
