I love MACARONI & CHEESE. I love it even more knowing it is now a Crayola color.
Here is the shade the people at Crayola call MAC&CHEESE
Here is my attempt to match it.

This post is in response to The Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Seasons.
Life is always changing:
We grow.

We learn.


We laugh.

We play.

We pray.

We dance life’s dance.

And sometimes we fall.

Some of life we walk with others.

Some of it we walk alone.
But one thing we can surely know is that life like the seasons is all about change.
“As long as the earth endures,
seedtime and harvest,
cold and heat,
summer and winter,
day and night
will never cease.” Genesis 8:22


This week Cee has challenged us to show her THE WEATHER IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. Click the capitalized link to see weather from around the world.
I have learned a few things about the weather in my time…

Sometimes it’s easy to walk above our weather. At certain moments we think we have it all in hand and life’s little problems seem beneath us however irritating they might be.

Then there are those moments when the weather rises up and engulfs us. We can’t rise above it because it’s coming from above. We have to learn how to live in it one shovelful at a time.

But the truth is that whatever the weather is doing around us, whether the clouds are thick and gloomy…

Whether the rain is falling down or…

the sun is shining high, it is we who choose how the weather effects us. We decide if the snow and rain are blessings or barriers. We carry our own weather.
