Believe In Magic



I believe in magic,
It  
comes unexpectedly
and
softly whispers secrets
to
our hearts .


It's magical 
that
 hummingbirds are so tiny 

that basil thrives in the hot sun

that perfect margaritas are so easy to make

that the farmers market is filled with so much homegrown goodness 

that dinner with a good friend can be so beautiful
 

that white doves are so easy to raise and oh so lovely


that home will always be where your heart is

I believe in magic........
and
that magical moments happened 
everyday
to those who seek them.

    I'm a believer too dear Dottie.

    Lovely photos and thoughts.

    I just had a margarita by myself last evening. :-) Not as magical without my DH, but still magical.

    Your home is decorated so wonderfully and is an inspiration to me.

    Love and hugs ~ FlowerLady

    Love and hugs to you.

    Oh Dottie! I believe in magic, too. I believe it is all around us and that God grants us the ability to see beautiful magical moments if we are willing to open our eyes to them- xo Diana

    And I think you have a gift of making your magic come true as you celebrate life in the fullest sense! That hummingbird is just exquisite in his/her beauty. Marvelous pink "necklace."
