- As I pull into the church parking lot on Sunday, a couple, who are like surrogate parents to me, walking into the church holding hands.
- And another couple pulls up before I get out of the car. He jumps out and goes to the passenger side, opens the door and extends a hand. She takes his hand and gets out of the car. I don't see that often and think it's a beautiful thing and tell them so.

That third one made me tear up a bit.
LOVE your back deck haven, and I like the blog that's showing on your laptop -- one of my faves!

Lynn - good morning - I love your observations - and how sweet of that man to open the door for his gal.

Lovely to know that chivalry is not dead! :)
What a beautiful setting. I can almost hear how quiet it is from here.
Hi Lynn .. love the back porch and would love to sit there with the birds chuntering happily around - gorgeous ..
Those little heartwarming stories - just great .. have a happy week - Hilary
No, chivalry is not dead...my thoughts exactly. I love the view of your peaceful porch. It makes we want to have a bookcase full of all the Best Seller's and a year off to myself.
Beautiful images - at home and at church. Thank you.
What a lovely spot to start your day. And how warming it is to see people act as you describe. It would be wonderful to see more like that.
Just reading about them has warmed my heart...so thank you. :)
That is all very sweet stuff! Nice to focus on when things are not so great. I like to store memories like that.

When I complimented him, he gave sort of an inward smile and she looked as if she was thinking, "Doesn't everyone have this?" Sadly - no.
Thank you - I amused myself by pulling up my blog for my photo. :)

Just birds singing. It's lovely.
Hilary -
I wish you could join me for some tea. Hope you are having a happy week, too. Cheers to you.

Funny you say that - when my friends with families visit, they all say that, too. One of them said, "Could I just stay here for a week and read books and listen to music?" "You could," I said.

Things like that are all around us all the time. I just like to keep my eye out.
what an inviting setting!
love your back porch.
hope you enjoy your day.
big hug~
happy summer!
What a lovely Peaceful spot! At-One, with nature!
I love that Chivalry is not dead! My dearest Soul Mate, ALWAYS opened the door for me--all through hi lifetime. It's the way he was brought up, you know? It seemed utterly natural to him...! It's good to know that this type of kindness STILL exists!
I love your back porch!
Nice spot you got there. Mine's alot less private now with summer neighbors here. Love when the birds aren't frightened of you, because you/re feeding them-
Good to know there are still couples showing polite love in public.
