X for a Kiss or a Wish

Took this photo sitting at my desk today.
Lots of April showers so far this month! And little
sprouts here on the pear tree. And X's can be kisses or
wishes, right? So I made a wish!

    Yeh think I have all three. Love your sidebar pic. It's really hard to take a nice shot of yourself. Raining her too and we love it.

    We sure do need all those bones all the time. And the kiss of dew on the pear tree looks cool. Fantastic picture.

    We rarely get enough rain out here and would gladly take a few days of yours.

    God bless.

    It is amazing to think of the significance of that most basic of shapes - two lines crossed over. You can take whatever the most basic trait that defines humanity you choose (be it love, hope, religious faith or whatever) and somewhere along the line you can find a cross symbol.

    While aren't you being observant today
    As all I do is sit here and play
    Yes it is raining here too
    Even had flurries last night I tell you
    Oh and I really agree with the quote
    But on the first note
    I'd rather find a magic lamp
    Preferably some place not damp
    Then some wish bone
    Or a pine cone
    Oh and did you notice Brian Rhymed
    Such a fun time

    Your personal style shows all three... your "wishbone, backbone and funnybone".

    Great combination.

    Just can't get caught up since our company from Texas... Seems like I'm a day late or a dollar short.

    I love your quote, and your and that camera have a special love affair. Beautiful shot of that drop of rain.

    Thanks, Wanda. I seem to do better with the zoom lens than the micro. And I still need to read the book after all these months. ha.
