Growing up, I enjoyed watching my Mom pot and re-pot plants. The smell of green and the smell of the soil: calming. Mom taught me to look underneath the pot to check for roots growing through the drain holes, which indicated the need for a bigger pot. Water the plant without drowning the roots. Fertilize and trim the plant like this. Gently remove the plant from its old pot. Pack the soil when you re-pot. She taught me so many things about plants. She always gave me clear directions in a soothing voice. She taught me to respect the plants and the soil. She's still a "country girl" at heart. Each time I water or pot/re-pot a plant, I think of Mom. It's a soothing activity. This is my latest re-potted plant.

A Peaceful Rest for Rita
In 2015, one of my dearest friends was called to her rest. Today is her birthday.
She no longer walks this earth, but she remains in the hearts of those who love her.
I feel her absence.
I miss her presence. I recall Revelation 14:13.
I thank God for loved ones here and for those who rest in peace.
