"I know a lot of you folks have come out to the farm and you've seen the words, and a lot of you have asked me, 'how could this have happened?'. I don't know, but it has happened... at a time when we really don't see many miraculous things. Maybe we do. Maybe they're all right there around us everyday, we just don't know where to look."

Its hard not to think of ordinary miracles with the beauty of nature this season. They happen all around us. Great post.
Here's my BSM

That is a great pic - I love spider webs. But I obviously hate spiders :)
BSM: Ordinary miracles
Wow! What a wonderful capture. I am not a fan of spiders, but their webs are magnificent!
Here is my BSM
That is a fantastic capture of the web. Amazing that such an extraordinary talent comes from something that totally creeps us out!
In the Patch
What a gorgeous photo.
I'll second what Kara said... spider webs are so beautiful, how come spiders are so ugly? :)
Mine is not so much about a miracle as it is about courage:
Women Who Say No To Photoshopping
But where is Charlotte? :)
Mine's up. A day early and everything. Wow!
BSM - Growing?
Beautiful photo of the spider web!
My best shot is of my sleeping angel
One of my favorite songs - and favorite finds lately outside, too! It is the ordinary miracles that make life so very lovely.
My BSM for the week.
Wonderful Shot! I Love the changing seasons myself. Here's my shot for the week.

That is awesome! Miracle indeed.
You see, I really need a macro lens (or some equivalent) because we get those gorgeous webs (made by the big ugly seasonal spiders) I took a picture but it didn't come out too well.
Here's my best shot(s) this week.
They do indeed happen all around us. Between Sarah's lovely voice and your post I have goosebumps, Tracey!
My BSM is here.
Gorgeous fall weather, good food and cupcakes are ordinary miracles, yes?
i always try to do pics of spiderwebs. i think i need a better camera:-)
here's my beautiful inspiration...
Everyday miracles are the best parts of the day.
My BSM is a bit of the everyday...
Beautiful beautiful quote.
My Best Shot
What a great reminder.
My BSM was a bit of a miracle in that I had 2 kids under 2 sitting quietly and playing together off on their own under a tree while all the older siblings played frisbee and whiffle ball around them. It was so fun to watch the toddlers "communicate" and laugh at each other's "jokes" and faces and to watch them share their snack.
My BSM: Raisins Amongst Friends
I don't have a miracle shot to share. I'll have to capture a miracle around here this week.
Heart-to-Heart
I'm always trying to get good photos of spider webs but they never turn out right. I love yours :)
Here's my BSM
U never want to get that close to the webs.
No miracles today- just life.
What a beautiful sentiment! There truly are miracles all around.
Here's My Little Mermaid
What a lovely photo - I am hoping and praying for some more miracles to head Annika's way.
Here is my contribution today.
lovely shot of the web!
here's my best shot this week.
I am so intrigued by spider webs. They really are amazing and you captured it so well.
Here's mine:
My Little Miracles
How true. Thanks for the inspiring thoughts.
Here's my Best Shot for today.
yes they are all around us. I went to the farm (really)found beauty in the ordinary yet extraordinarily simple things.
Amazed
Life is full of ordinary miracles, you just have to look and recognize them for what they are. :) A lot of times I think they are missed because people don't slow down enough to see them.
Here's my best shot, not quite a miracle but a pretty something I've always wondered what they looked like up close.

Miracles
are for the eyes

That photo is beautiful and mesmerizing. And that says a lot coming from an anachrophobe.
yesterday i took a detour to work and wandered off to a road where 2 bambi deers were playing. i stopped and talked to them and they didn't run off. they actually kept starring at me as if they wanted to chat back. it was so sweet. this never happens, so it was a miracle boost for me! xxox
Miracle here? My son who lives with FAS and has no impulse control and runs away when he knows nothing else to do...was found and returned home safely tonight.
And I pray for continued miracles. Because one day...he may run farther.
And thank you for reminding me to check on A...and how much I adore Charlotte's Web.
Ok, I totally spaced and didn't think this was the BSM post. Long weekend. =)
Well, it's totally late, but here was myBest Shot Monday
