A Rainbow Colored Day
There are, I find, more ways to define a perfectly lovely day. . . for I've had another one. Even lovelier than the last.

I might even say that it was -- as someone once wrote -- "A rainbow colored day. . . one of those rare days when everything seems to go right."

Warm sunshine. . .

     Beautiful summertime. . .

          Sparkling lakes. . .

                Lighthouses. . .

                      Waterfalls. . .

                               Laughter. . .

                                          Love. . .

                                                 An engagement. . .

Leaving me overflowing with happiness and praising the faithful God who has already given me so much, but continues to pile joy upon joys.

Could I possibly be more blessed?

My first response to this post was to check the calendar to make sure it wasn't April 1. That being said, congratulations.
