Pretty Vine

I thought this was a pretty sight in the neighbourhood the other day, I did paint it recently when it was at an earlier stage.  Thanks to Martha for identifying it as 'Morning Glory'.


Here is another photo on the same fence:



Lux wrote a wonderful list the other day of '6 things she would never do to her kids', I thought it was an excellent list:  never compare them, never laugh at their dreams, always be there for them,  never shelter them from reality, show them respect, and share your faith.  I think my mother taught me to always be there for my children, she has always been there for me.

And this is the time of year that I go looking for my agenda book for next year, how about you?  I've always had an agenda book since my early teens.

Love the vines, they are always so pretty. It's great when children treat their kids well, and I always feel very sorry for children who don't grow up in loving homes. Hugs, Valerie

Beautiful vines. It looks like morning glories. Definite favourites of mine!

That is a great list that Lux wrote. Loving homes are a true blessing.

I don't have an agenda book. I do know I should plan a lot more though. I think I'll be a mixed parent but one thing I'll definitely do is not try to shelter them from the world. If I develop a thin skinned kid who blames everyone else for their own feelings I'll feel I've failed.

That's a nice list to abide by. Love your photos.

I always hate when plant life takes over my fence, but they didn't get a bad one there.

Thanks for identifying 'Morning Glory', I knew it wasn't 'Trumpet Vine'.

Oooh, I think that's so pretty! I love your photographs of this fence with the flowers. I've tried to keep a planner, but it hasn't worked out for me in the past, maybe sometime in the future though...

Love the fence with the morning glorys. They are pretty plants but do they ever take over. I love them though. Have a great week.:)

No agenda book, but I do have a prep board.
