Field of Flowers



I spend one day a month with the most amazing group of ladies. The better I get to know them, the more they astound me. The majority are grandmas who lavish love and care on their children and grandchildren. Several spend hours each month making gorgeous quilts, pillowcases, knitted caps, etc. to give to those in need. A few are marathon running fanatics. One uses her nursing skills to help people in places like Guatemala, Haiti and the Dominican Republic. One is building a ranch house in Mexico with her husband. One was recently prescribed oxygen for her breathing issues, but she didn’t let that keep her from a dream vacation in Italy. They’re all creative and artistic women, whether they’re working with garden trowels, egg beaters or needle and thread. Every month I’m eager to join their ranks again, to see what they’ve been up to and to hope some of that awesomeness will rub off on me.
