Enjoying the View

My mom flew into Connecticut today to spend the week with us.  When I picked her up at the airport, she remarked that the view from the plane as it descended was spectacular.  Given her appreciation of the New England scenery, I expected her to lavish praise on the fall foliage as we drove along the wooded back roads to our house.  After all, people come from all over the country to go “leaf peeping” this time of year.  But do you think I heard one comment from her about the autumn colors?  Nope – all I heard on the way home was “Susie’s smile just lights up her whole face!” and “Becky’s grinning at me!"  I guess she flew all the way across the country to enjoy a different part of God’s handiwork.
