Dear God:
Today, I am thankful for snow to feed a thirsty garden.
Yesterday, I took one look at the melting snow drifts in the backyard and knew what I had to do. Since we live in a drought area, I hate to waste water - especially when it's a gift. So, taking my trusty shovel in hand, I carefully spread snow over my gardens and at the base of the trees and shrubs. My legs, arms and shoulders also got quite a workout, with each shovelful equalling one squat and one biceps curl. T, who prefers cooler weather, wandered in and out of the house in search of shade and a good stick to chew. The sun was warm, the breeze cool, and the work satisfying.
For this blessing, I am grateful.
Amen.
