I was giving Barney his eye medicine when I glanced out the living room window to see the sun's rays streaming through the trees. I ran upstairs to get the camera and then outside in my jammies to snap this picture. I love seeing the sun's rays coming through clouds or through trees. When I was deep in the throes of mourning for my father, they comforted me and made me think that there is something more to this life -- that somehow they were his message to me that he is OK and is watching over us.

Happy Birthday, Martha! I hope you have a wonderful day.
