Red Crayons & Tiny Specks

I love the color red.  From the time I was a little girl, I loved red.  It was the best crayon in Sunday School.  The children sang from song books that were red.  Mama used to serve breakfast on small white plates that were rimmed with red lines.  It was absolutely delightful!   The linoleum on the dining room floor was red.   Papa had a gray suit with tiny red specks in it.  As a three year old, I used to sit beside him in church and hunt for all the red specks I could find.  My first grade sweater was red and so was my first church purse.   I was fascinated with red and today,I have the color splashed around my house, inviting me to enjoy the warmth and beauty.   What brings you pleasure today?
