blessing

I walked with my father around their building today and this butterfly appeared out of nowhere but I had no camera. Later in the day, I had a break when the hospice nurse was with my mother and I went right back hoping to find him again . . .with camera in hand. I had just about given up hope when he appeared again. . . a real blessing in a day that held few.

Thank you all again for commenting and viewing - I know that you all understand that it's hard for me to find the time right now to write about all of your wonderful shots. . .but I'll catch up!

That is one fantastic photo.....so glad he came back for you after a very emotional and tiring day...........

[JackieS]

A fleeting moment to be enjoyed in an otherwise emotional and worrying day I think? Thoughts and prayers are with you, hospices are wonderful and caring places, but by their very nature they are sad places too.
