DEIDRE, I've seen this pop up in my feed (is that what it's called here? Idek) and I hadn't made time to listen to it and WOAH. I love this. I'm not a mom, but I think this wisdom is very applicable to my life right now. Thank you for sharing some flowers to my life today <3

Beautiful, Deidre! Such an encouragement, such a spurring on to shake off the things of this world and to surround & surrender ourselves to God's creation, where we find beauty, peace, stillness. Only then will we be truly abundant & full.

I think this is one of my favorite things you have written, Deidre! I needed this message a decade ago. So beautifully written and spoken. Here's to bouquets bursting with dreams and possibilities 🤗❤️

YES! THIS! Life must always have color and bouquets everyday, everywhere! I love this soooo much. And when I lose the ability to see all the colors I don't feel alive. Thanks so much for this. I love to be read to and When you are the reader, even better🥰
