Hi Friends,
Here are some fun things I found online to share. Have you tried this new diet?
My birthday was a few days ago and here are birthday flowers from my sons in photo below. The white lilies are sensational and have a subtle scent.
My adult sons sometimes surprise me with bouquets, "just because". One from each son.
Cute cat with a full belly sand sculpture.
Psalm 119:34 "Teach me O Lord the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end." Psalm 119:33 KJV Today at the group of Christian friends I organize once a month, this is the Psalm I read, We meet at a coffee shop and each picks a Scripture to share. I like the idea of "teach me", when I read the Bible I am open to learn.
Here is a photo of a Bedouin I took at a camel race in the desert near Jericho 60 years ago. I did not realize how foolish it was to travel with my friend Carol, in the desert to wild places on our own. The American Embassy discouraged us, but did not forbid us. It was exciting and great fun at the time. War broke out a few months later.
Another cute pix. A Gucci Pooch.

Happy Birthday! Your flowers are just beautiful. You have very thoughtful sons.
That sand sculpture is so cute! And no, I've never tried the bread hat diet. I need something though. Dennis has been to some interesting places. He was almost kidnapped at the pyramids in Egypt. Men were trying to pull him out of the car and his guide was pulling him back in. He was sure his arms would be broken but the driver finally drove off and the men let go. That was scary and I'm glad he didn't tell me until he got home. He had a few other situations in Croatia, Ukraine, Romania and Nigeria. It can be scary out there in the big world sometimes. His boss gave him a card for the Pinkerton Agency in London. Yes, it's a real detective agency! I always laugh and asked that if he was kidnapped, how could he call them for help?
Sorry, I'm rambling. Your photo of the camel just reminded me of his Egypt experience. Camels and all!
And yes, every time I read the Bible I learn something new. It truly is the "Living Word". Each time you read it you learn a new lesson for you life. Just what you need at that moment. God is SO good.
Blessings and love,
Betsy
Beautiful flowers, interesting sand sculpture.
And happy birthday to you!
Belated Happy Birthday wishes! ♥ ... And good to be able to look back at adventures one managed to get through unscathed!
Sounds like you have some great sons.
Hi Terra,
Thank you for sharing — I really enjoyed this 😊 Belated happy birthday! 🎉
The flowers from your sons are so beautiful, and even more special “just because.”
I also loved the Psalm — “Teach me” is such a simple but meaningful prayer. And your story about Jericho is fascinating
Happy Birthday! Glad you were celebrated well.
I like your photos!
These were indeed FUN stuff!!
Happy Birthday and you were very adventurous!
The first pic cracked me up.
YAY for your sons buying you flowers...all are gorgeous!
SIXTY years ago you went to the Middle East??? WOW...i was 6. hahah
That's a wonderful Scripture you shared. I love Psalms.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday to you!!! It's always nice to receive flowers :)
Happy Birthday, Terra! I wouldn't have dared to be so adventurous in visiting a foreign country as you were back in the day. And now? Absolutely not! Loved the flowers you were gifted for you birthday. Blessings!
Happy Birthday wonderful flowers.

Oh golly, you are funny. Loaf hat diet, indeed! Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday, Terra. Love the flowers from your boys. Love that you braved the world and took your journey. Probably wouldn't do it today-but we were young and invincible back then, weren't we? lol. xo Diana
Happy Birthday Terra! Those flowers, a beautiful gift. You were very brave traveling as you did and what great memories you made. Well done!
Happy Spring Terra: Love that first photo, makes me giggle. Happy Belated Birthday, hope it was an amazing day for you. Lovely flowers from your sons.
I am like you I like to take chances, that is a memory that no one can take from you.

Wonderful bouquets, dear Terra - and all I see here ist wonderful!
I see, that your sons love you very much. Not without reason!
The desert-man is so authentic! A precious photo, made in happy days and with the risk, which young people love :)
Look, the small dog, how sweet he is "flowing" -
My best regards for your birthday 🌹💐🌸🌺🌷🌻🥀🌼🪻🪷💮
The Lord is your friend and He loves your love for Him and for His word.
Many greetings and blessings to you from Dori from the Bavarian Forest
Some wow photos here, your flowers are so pretty
Belated happy Birthday wishes to you Terra. All your flower bouquets are beautiful and lovely gifts from your sons. I loved the car photo from your last post and the cat one here. It made me chuckle. The camel racing bought back some good memories for me from 40 years ago when I was in Jericho and the surrounding area. I was on a Christian holiday/expedition and met my husband then.
Nice pictures! Happy belated birthday! Your sons are so sweet to give you flowers just because!
All compliments for the bread, I only eat toast with seeds, the flowers for the holiday are wonderful...Happy Birthday!
Is the little Chihuahua yours, it is so very cute.
I wish you a nice Sunday, Hug
Good morning! Every time I read a passage from the Bible, I think about what it really means, what message it brings to me, and I think about what I should do. Greetings!
Happy birthday! What thoughtful sons you have. I love the new diet!
Hello... and so very glad to hear from you via a comment today on my blog. My cat, Katie Isabella has her own blog. She forces me to take dictation and then I must assist her by typing her blog for you after she has fully expressed herself. I had the pleasure of your comment on mine. We, you and I, have some similarities...enough that we would get on rather nicely were we neighbors. As I am in TN you are saved by the travel distance. :-) I love the gathering if Christian friends and the verses. I wonder if I can somehow raise interest in that idea here?
And my goodness, Happiest Birthday to you.
