These words are very personal for my family and I
and Scott’s photo couldn’t have been more perfect.
This is the last of the “Scott & Scott” collaborating collection,
but maybe there’ll be more in the future. 🙂

Celebrating 4 years with WordPress! :)
Happy Anniversary!
You registered on WordPress.com 4 years ago!
Thanks for flying with us. Keep up the good blogging!
When they say “time flies” there’s no doubt!
I honestly can’t believe it’s been 4 years!
I created this blog in 2010, but actually became active in 2011,
so in my mind, it’s been 3 years. 🙂
All I really want to say is a BIG “Thanks” to all of YOU!
You who have been with me from the beginning,
joined me in the middle or
who have recently just found me;
You who have been mentors;
You who have encouraged me to continue writing
and lastly, You who have become friends!
It’s amazing meeting people across the country
and around the world!
So “THANK YOU” for stopping by in the midst of your busy life.
I appreciate all of YOU and to celebrate,
I give you a hug!
Oh, alright, here’s a few more.
One can never have enough. 🙂
Wishing you a wonderful day, evening and week
and I hope you continue to enjoy
this little piece of my world.
Love, Lauren

Man’s Best Friend’s Entertaining Antics
Ever since Copper became a member of our family,
squirrels have become the “bane of my existence!”
He shows tremendous confidence in being able
to catch the fast little critters, but to no avail.
Jumping in the air
feeling so close, yet so far
there’s hope for next time
High up in the sky
looking down as if to smile
they always prevail
(but Copper also shares mellow moments
where he breathes in the beauty around him)
The enjoyment and fun our furry pets provide us
is priceless and worth a million smiles…

and hold Copper at the same time)

Morning Blessing
slowly emerging
over the hilltop with warmth
blue skies awaiting
my soul is reborn, following
a new bouncing ray of hope

Behind the Faces
“Be yourself” is
what they say
Let your mask
fall to the ground
(don’t be afraid)
watch all pretenses crumble
yet if they don’t like
what lies beneath
be aware of the
curve balls of judgment
Where is the truth
in their words?
Each syllable’s tone
sounds compassionate
We could be tone deaf
or maybe we simply
hope for the best

(I’ve dropped the mask and have been hurt.
I’ve dropped the mask and
have been blessed with good friends.
I still believe in “being yourself” no matter what;
letting your heart lead the way and hoping for the best.)
