In this beautiful old image, a graceful swan, a contented-looking duck and 3 adorable little ducklings are all swimming peacefully in the water of a pond at the farm. The image is from an antique children’s storybook titled Visit to the Farm by Koerner & Hayes, 1896.
Here is a black and white clipart version of the image.

Beautiful picture, thank you. How are you doing?

You’re welcome Angela. I’m glad you like it!
It’s going to take time to get over the heartbreak of the separation but I’m adjusting to my new normal a little more each day. I am trying (emphasize “trying”) not to fret about the future but trust God to direct my path. I’ve been spending more time working on the graphics lately and that gives me joy and contentment. I thought I’d stock my Etsy shop in this time before I return to work but I keep gravitating towards my blog. 🙂

Possibly blogging keeps things a little normal while you get used to all the changes. I have been thinking of you and will keep you in my prayers xx
Julie J
That could be exactly right, Angela. Thank you kindly for your prayers. xx

This is an absolutely gorgeous image, and so sweet with the wee ones! I don’t know you, Julie, but I’ve been where you are, and while no fun, you’ll come out on the other side stronger with your faith in God. He’s the only one that can lead us to a point of healing. Bless you!

Thank you for your encouragement, Jamie. Bless you also! ♥
