Consider the lilies of the field… Matt 6:28
I received this video and encouraging words from a former principal. “MG, I thought of you when i saw this and thought you might like to see it and perhaps use it. You are the best music teacher that Fairfax has ever turned out. Kay
How can a teacher be more blessed than this except to have her students sing this from a grateful heart. And, my students sure have that! Thank you, Kay….

We have lots of beautiful handing baskets! And remember we are sending students to college!
Though the clouds may be gray outside my window; I feel so sunny inside; I have been doing a whole lot of thinking; It has made me realize; life is what we make it; We’re happy if we want to be; The doors that we open can all be good ones; we ALL have the Masters Key; So, look through the clouds, the sun is still there; Jump over the rocks that you see; Keep a smile on your face and love in your heart; Hold tight to the Masters Key.

Almost everyone wants a beautiful, care-free garden. As you think about and select plants to buy for that garden you may be hoping for the same thing. As a horticultural consultant, I am frequently told, “I want a low maintenance garden with plants that are easy to grow and easy to maintain.” While there is really no such thing as a maintenance free garden there are some colorful plants you can use that will help your summer be more care-free…that is less time working in the garden and more time enjoying it!
One of my favorite care-free perennial shrubs for blooms from April to November in many areas is the Knock-out Rose. It grows about four feet high and wide and when planted in a sunny location, it will smile with color without the use of pesticides or cutting the stems. It appreciates a light haircut yearly, a feeding of slow-release fertilizer and a drink of water when dry, but other than that it will leave you alone. I think the red and pink varieties are the best.

Nags Head, NC, Dot
Shadows sleep in silence; Trees bow their heads; Breezes slide through darkness; Stars whisper in cloudy beds; Waters ripple quietly; Vast Oceans to tiny streams; Mountains stand attention; Clouds move slowly, making dreams; Tiny blades of grass are born; Caressed by beads of dew; Awaiting morning sunlight; Enhanced by skies of blue; Rosebuds in infancy smile
