Saturday Snapshot -- Poppy

To participate in the Saturday Snapshot meme post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken then leave a direct link to your post on West Metro Mommy. Photos can be old or new, and be of any subject as long as they are clean and appropriate for all eyes to see. How much detail you give in the caption is entirely up to you. Please don’t post random photos that you find online.
This week has been a tough one for me, so the morning sunshine on this pink poppy is about the most hopeful thing I can find. 
I'm trying to jump start my mood. I ran this morning and stopped at Starbucks for a mocha with caffeine (I usually drink decaf.) On my walk home, I saw a number of yellow finches flitting along and landing on the side of a brick building. They made me smile, so I know all hope is not lost. 
Hope you are all having a good weekend.

Beautiful picture.

Hope is not permanent for me. Thank you for the reminder that it's the process of finding hope each and every day, one day at time that brings us to life and keeps us connected to our lives.

Sending you good thoughts.

Poppies are so delicate! Love the papery petals! I sure hope your next week improves ... one step at a time!

The poppy is such a lovely colour. I just read your previous post too, you certainly have had a rough week, hope your dad continues to recover well, and the other problems melt away.
