Natural Beauty
I had misplaced my camera's battery charger since the move, so I was unable to take any decent pictures until today. I cleaned up the family van and found many "lost" items including said battery charger. So I went out to the field near the townhouse parking lot, and found, among the weeds, in the beautiful wildflowers that usually pass unperceived, the natural beauty we've been missing.

"Weeds." Such a funny term for such a beautiful creature.
Through friends of mine I have learned that weeds are often Pioneer species.
The key insight being That these plants which I often find quite beautiful are in fact preparing the soil and preparing it for other More Directly fruitful species to come.
Click here to be directed to my other blog, where I am publishing, in order, the Braga Family photo albums made by my mother, Lucia Braga. May she rest in God's eternal and blissful peace.

All the marvelous providence of the good God!
