The Dotty Ladybug

So... today officially marks the month anniversary of my last blog post. This is SHOCKING! And for all you regular blog checkers (Fish i know you're out there) i appologise for the unrewarded hits to this little slice of cyberspace (i especially apologise to D who is SO wonderfully faithful with her blog... check it out here).

What has inspired this (eventual) blog post was my observation of two very dear little ladybugs on the Drostdy lawns on Friday morning... the more i watched them the more i felt deliciously inspired to write a random story about a ladybug named Minnie... then i lost the plot of my story but decided that it was still high time that i wrote a blog post :)

Some funny things that I have heard this week thus far (and it's only Monday)

Fish sent me an msn today saying "can you hear the musical sounding music?"

My sister e-mailed me (a very happy thing to recieve) and was talking about someone being on fire for God (i often say 'sold out for God') but my sister typed it as 'souled out'... it was so delightful i laughed till my neighbours must have thought i'd gone mad.

Yesterday the girl who is going to be Mary in the Nativity play at church was being told by Charlie that she was going to play the role of Mary, and her response was "I'm going to be a fairy?" hehe... gotta love kids! :D

I'm starting to feel that this post is irredeemable as anything except twaddle, but will publish it for your amusement (hopefully). I hope that the week ahead goes super well for all and that amongst all the crazy work which seems to be looming, there is the time and space to be refreshed, to feel loved and to love :)

God Bless :)

This pic is a monument to the ladybug Minnie whose tale remains untold... and plus it reminded me SO much of myself when i was little because for dress up parties i always used to go as a ladybug and my sister as a donkey... the photos are quite something to see! (plus i was also blond when i was little... just a(nother) random fact... hehe)
