The apple tree and pear tree are looking good, with plenty of fruit. The apples are so red. I said to Bob they reminded me of someone's art work bright against the green leaves, coloured with Crayola Crayons. Next day, I got something in the post - from "Art For The Soul"
I had ordered a pack of Reflection Postcards from my good friend Alice Price. She was our Youth Worker at Kirby, and Bob conducted her wedding - she married Steve the Magician. They live on the Wirral, and she is a Christian worker - and an artist. She's just started this website selling her artworks. One card seemed very apposite.
Here's front and back.
Look at the picture, think about it - then turn over to see the thoughts on the back.
With her permission, I am sharing this one, to give an idea of how the cards can inspire positive thoughts and reflections.I think the pack is well thought out. I may get more to send as gifts - or tuck individual cards in with birthday greetings or other presents. They are attractive, thought provoking, but not at all "preachy"
Please do check out her site...

Will do, those cards are very attractive...
