Yesterday I visited my sweetheart, he has not been doing well lately....stopped eating, stopped drinking, wouldn't get out of bed and the nurse suspected he may have a UTI. The Dr. has started him on an anti-biotic and he seemed to be better yesterday. I got him to eat some ice-cream (he has always loved ice-cream) and I did get him out of bed for awhile. It is so difficult to see the one you love diminish before your eyes. He could sure use a few of your prayers to help him thru this down-turn.
After staying with him for awhile I then went to my daughter's home for dinner. My two grand-daughters were there since they are both on spring break and the puppy, Mac, was in a playful mood. Between my grand-daughters, my daughter, my son-in-law and the wonderful dinner my daughter prepared, all combined, brought back the joy.
His legs are getting longer & longer, but he still doesn't jump. Hasn't managed the stairs yet and no furniture jumping, but it won't be long..
Sandy was definitely keeping an eye on Mac....
Before I left yesterday, I stopped by my neighbors where I spotted these pretty little snow-drops popping up in their yard. Had, had, had to stop and take a pic.... Linking this up to Lisa's Creative Exchange
And finally, this little fading tulip that my daughter still had sitting in a vase on her kitchen counter...they are lovely in every stage. Linking up with Leaves In Bloom for her Color Me Weekly

You have a wonderful eye for great compositions, colour and light. So pleased your day ended well. I know it was hard seeing my dad slowly go downhill, some times were worse than others. Particularly difficult for my mum who visited nearly every day through the years he was in care.
