Something about a Lion = Magnificent

When I was a little girl I had this wish, I always wanted to own a Lion. One with a Huge gorgeous mane. They never ever looked mean to me, like? Hmmm, they would want to have my arm for lunch! I just wanted one to hug and love. Obviously, as time went on and I grew up I got a wee bit wiser and new this was just not going to happen. But to this day whenever I see a lion on TV or a picture in a magazine, I think back to the idea that I still want to own one. Why am I sharing this?????? Well no particular reason except I really got a lot out of the quote in the above photo. We must all believe in ourselves and work towards our hopes and dreams, no matter what bumps happen along the way.
I hope you enjoy this photo of this Magnificent Lion, Isn't he AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL. And Please feel free to share your wishes, even if they are really silly like mine.
Happy Spring to all of you

Sunshine and BumbleBee's

I must add beautiful flowers to this title. My Kalie Rose turned 21 years old yesterday. She looked so beautiful standing next to her bouquet of flowers. Along came this large and very pretty bumbleBee. It was so fascinating to see how long the bee stayed near by. We were snapping pictures and talking and laughing but this wonderful creature didn't fly away. It just makes me wonder! And also have a happy heart
