Beauty
I really like peonies. I like most fresh flowers. But I don't take the time to try to grow them.
Enter Mama. She makes our home beautiful with the flowers she grows around the house outside. These are some of the beautiful, bright pink peonies we've been blessed with the last couple of weeks.

And she not only adds beauty with flowers, she also adds beauty through order--something our family is sorely lacking! She quietly goes about getting things done in the house and outside, making our world more orderly and beautiful.
Proverbs 31:27-31, oft-quoted, but never stale:
27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. 28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. 29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. 30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
