“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.”
1 Corinthians 13:4-6
“O how He loves you and me, O how He loves you and me, He gave His life, what more could He give? O how He loves you, O how He loves me, O how He loves you and me!”
Kurt Kaiser
“Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.”
1 Corinthians 13:7-8a
Such a peaceful looking path!
The Japanese Magnolias normally bloom in early March in NE AL, but this year they were in full bloom the first of February!

Mary Collins is ready for her Valentines party!
I sure do love bread…but it’s not on the Whole30 program! Stay tuned for a post about progress and a recipe coming soon!
As simple and southern as it gets!
Another beautiful home in our downtown area!

Oh, Mary Collins is adorable in her red bows! She’s a cutie, for sure. Beautiful downtown home, old barn, and falling-in-house. The stories that house could tell!! As always, your natural surroundings are gorgeous. I hope you and yours have a wonderful, restful day!
Thanks so much, Kim! Happy Sunday!
I am nervous about all the early blooming this year! Have a beautiful Sunday in your picturesque town Pam!
Thanks so much, Jenna!
Beautiful post! Your photo’s are lovely and bring such a peaceful feeling on the wonderful Sunday. I loved the scriptures you chose as well. Thank you.
Thanks so much, Valerie!
“He gave His life, what more could He give?” Oh, how He loves you and me!” … the ultimate and forever Valentine! Thank you for the beautiful word reminders and pictures on this glorious Sunday, Pam!
I love this comment, cottagegreenonthelake, because no one is alone on Valentine’s Day. Yes! Pam, that looks like bamboo growing in the last photograph. Very cool?
“Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!” … haha! For some reason all my comments today are worship lyrics! Not a bad thing! ?
Amen, Ginene….Jesus loves me, this I know!! Have a beautiful week!
Thanks so much, Trenda…wishing you a joy-filled week!
Idyllic scenes. Love the tulip tree and old barns and houses.
Wonderful scriptures.
Thanks, Bonnie…wishing you a joy-filled week, my friend!
Those red hair bows! Oh my! Someone is definitely well loved!
Thanks Leslie Anne.. Happy Weekend!
I don’t think I could ever do Whole30 with the resident bread maker. I love that photo. And to see the blooming trees makes my heart smile. Just a couple more months up here — late April to mid-May for our bloomers!
Jeanie, doing without bread and sweets are the hardest part, but we are on day 20, we can do this!
Yes, with no winter weather in the south, all the flowering trees and plants are blooming much too early this year. But, they are beautiful. I just hope we don’t have an Easter freeze. Your little Valentine Doll is just that! Precious!
Thanks so much and yes everything is way early? And I hope spring doesn’t get confused!
The Japanese magnolia starts blooming in Houston early February and along with the return of robins is the harbinger of spring.
Everything is blooming here very early, Linda.
Great photos. I especially like the Japanese Magnolia. I’m sure the scent is heavenly.
