Best Shot Monday



"It is always we who are to entertain the angels, and never they us. I cannot, however, think that an angel would be a very entertaining person, either as guest or host."
~ Samuel Butler


It could simply be a feather from a tiny bird caught up in the branches of a bush in my back garden . . . or . . . it could be something else. I like to think that we spend our days entertaining angels, unaware of the joy that we give them from time to time. I once heard one giggle . . . or maybe it was a sigh . . .



This is my entry in this weeks, Best Shot Monday. Now hop on over to Mother May I and see some of the other wonderful entries for this week!

    I'm still pouting because I can't jump on a plane and come and see you this week....why do those darn plane fares have to be so expensive??? I can just see myself having a nice visit with you and Todd for a couple of days then taking off on our bargain cruise...... ahhh... well I can dream. I send love as always, Lura

  16. Great photo! I totally believe in angels and think they are all around us all the time. I happen to believe that my dear Grandmother is my personal guardian angel. I think of her often even though she died when I was 12. I hope I can give her a good chuckle every once in a while!
