Good morning. It's a lovely, sunny morning here at Terra Cottage. I thought you might like to join me for tea.
Early morning sun shines through the bathroom window... 
sending colorful shadows across the floor.
Gardens outside the library window soak in the morning's rays.
A chair offers an early morning seat in the back garden.
Sunlight splashes across the grass.
I've brewed a pot of mango tea this morning. Won't you join me for a cup?
Perhaps we should sit on the front porch and enjoy the morning sunlight.
Let's take a walk through the garden and see what's happening. Roses are blooming (hmmm...looks like we are not the only ones enjoying this bloom:).
The garden path is dappled with shimmers of light.
A bee busy at work.
Light filters through the trees.
A settee just beyond a field of elephant ears welcomes one to sit back and enjoy the morning's glory.
Plants bask in the soft morning sun.
Even this dragon fly seems to be taking in the sun's warmth.
These elephant ears become almost translucent in the sunlight.
A female cardinal watches from the fence post.
The sun is rising higher and it's getting a bit warmer now. We had better head back to the porch for more tea:).

Thank you for stopping in my friend. I, too, love all things victorian...

Oh Kim, I just love your post! This is a good one.
I'd be honored to sit and have some tea. Your pictures are super.
The bathroom is gorgeous and I have been enjoying reading the blog about the remodeling of it.
Can't wait to see your kitchen!!!
And this scripture is very touchy. I believe I will write this one down on an index card and work at memorizing it.
Blessings to you and I'm so enjoying your blogs!
Your bloggin friend in Kansas,

Oops, I meant to type the scripture is very touchING. With a toddler running, Barney singing in the background around plus I'm no typist, it came out touchy.
Have to reread my words. haha

Dear Kim,
Your Terra Cottage is so beautiful! I love your home and garden. Thank you for sharing the lovely photos. I loved seeing the sunlight stream through the windows in your cottage, and all of your pretty flowers. I would love to share a cup of tea with you! Beautiful verse!
Love, Paula
I love spending moments with you at your cottage and enjoying tea.
Such a warm and inviting post. I love your photos.
Kim,
I love the time I spend here at Terra cottage. It's the most peaceful place and the tea is the sweetest I've ever had. Such beauty! Your gardens are beautiful! And that bathroom... would you be a dear and run me a bath?
Smiles,
June
Thank you for the wonderful tour, and mango tea sounds just plain yummy. Enjoy your beautiful paradise.

Love the dragonfly! Also enjoyed the light shining thru the elephant ears.
Tea? Did someone say tea? If it's Darjeeling, count me in!
The beautiful reminders of God's presence reassures me that He is with us all. Thanks for you kind words for My Rachel and our family. I can thank God and sleep finally tonight. I was busy with her children all night. They were so upset and worried. Her poor husband fainted in the hospital yesterday and that was a fiasco. Blessings

Oh, I do want some tea! It's so very pretty there. *Elephant ears*-never heard of them...isn't it great how we get to see so much from other parts of our great world?

What a beautiful place. I think that you could find me in the tub the whole time just enjoying that sunlight making colorful prisms on the floor! I love visiting your blog and getting to go on little tours of the most wonderful places in your corner of the world. I know that it has been a while since I have been around, so sorry about that. But I have been thinking of you and wondering what is new, and once the summer is over I hope to have my daily blog time back again! until then dear friend, sending a hug your way. Debby
