landscaping designs
Pssssst, are you caring for elderly parents and helping them with their real estate needs? Want to see a pretty flower for landscaping designs for them OR you? One that's easy maintenance for your senior gardening, looks great, and makes delightful bouquets for your whole Sandwich Generation family, from the grandkids on up to the elderly senior citizens? Here tis, …my beloved hydrangeas, taken with my easy to use digital camera, just for Sweet Shot Tuesday, (can you tell I like EASY in a variety of ways – it's perfect for this Sandwich Generation granny nanny!)
As I was snapping the photos, I noticed that the leaves were as beautiful as the flowers – and yet, the flowers are what we notice. But when you stop and think about it, the leaves are just as important as the blossoms. In fact, because of feeding the plants, they are downright vital to the flowers.
Isn't that just like so many of us caring for our aging parents? Caregivers aren't always noticed and they rarely make the headlines (unless they do something really wrong), but caregivers are vital to those they care for. And what a blessing caregivers are to their carees. To me, that's pure joy!
"In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'" Acts 20:35
Have a lovely Word-Filled Wednesday, full of uplifting Bible verses and pictures to encourage the Sandwich Generation.

Welcome, indeed, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Pink Saturday. Over at SandwichINK, I've gussied up inside the house, just for you, and you're invited there as well. Here at SandwichINK Real Estate Info, I got an early start and the focus is on PINK outdoor lawn and garden decor, starting with the lovely pink butterfly garden decor in the welcome greeting above, in honor of it being PINK SATURDAY's THIRD BIRTHDAY!
Since my senior mom and I are busy with gardening projects focusing on the Sunflower House, a butterfly garden, and my brand new and already beloved Mr Lincoln Rose, which always has the most fragrant roses, I decided to incorporate those ala PINK for the party!
After all, some pink butterfly garden stakes are a lovely way to greet guests and lead them to the front door. Especially the taller metal butterflies on garden stakes that can hold plants!
In the back yard, you'll find FLOWERS – lovely pink flowers everywhere. Would you believe it, Burpee even has the first rose-pink Sunflower varieties – perfect for little girls Sunflower Houses to be the windows in between the taller Mammoth Sunflower varieties. I have to admit, I think they look more maroon myself, but still quite purty.
And wouldn't they look lovely intermixed with these pink flowers on a butterfly bush plant!
Oh my, what do you think of these adorable pink Pentas in Burpee's Butterfly Sparkles mix in your garden? I love the name as much as I love the flowers and I know my senior mom's decorative butterflies are going to like them as well as they flit around her gardening projects. Perfect for PINK landscaping designs, don't you think?
But now, it's time to head for the front door. Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY GREETINGS TO BEVERLY and PINK SATURDAY. It's definitely been PINK-a-licious! And don't forget to pop over to SandwichINK for some yummy pink cake and other fun things to bring a sweet smile to the Sandwich Generation.
