Sunday, 23 October 2005 - Bags and bags of leaves

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for bags and bags of leaves.

Since we only grow evergreen trees on our property, I ask neighbors with deciduous trees to save the leaves for me. On Saturday, the neighbor boys raked leaves and gave me the proceeds (15 bags) for my garden. Now my plants rest quietly under a thick blanket of leaves - a good thing since the nightime temperatures consistently drop to below freezing.

For this blessing, I am grateful.

Amen.
