      ...It's a funny story actually.  
 And the story is WHY I love this week's photo SO MUCH!
     >>Today before I had to run a bunch of important errands, run to pick up (important)  prescriptions and go thru an afternoon of stress.. I decided I was going to ATTEMPT a meaningless photo for "literature" because I truly didn't have any good ideas.
  I was wanting to do something with the bible, so while Juan was trying to find our bible (he did).. I decided to do some test shots..  So, I grabbed some books from around the house and set them up in the kitchen sink (by the window) to get some good natural lighting..
   I grabbed 4 books with very specific subjects.. Bright colored covers, which I thought would be great for a photo.  
    SO!!! What happened next was MAGICAL!!  ...  I had the book about health.. (it was very large).  I decided to wipe down the books real good since they had a little bit of dust..  and I noticed something sticking between the pages, (it looked like a little stick).  I pulled on it and I heard something tear... - I was very surprised..  & when this happened, I noticed that there were a few more stick looking things inside of the book (in different sections) hmmm..
  I opened the book to see what was inside.. and I seen a beautiful leaf.  So I took some photos of it, and turned the pages.. to the other leaves..  & I swear they just got  prettier & prettier the more pages I turned.  
   I was turning the pages looking at the old leaves (God only knows how long they've been there!! The book was given to us- YEARS AGO!  (I was turning the pages from the back to the front..)
  The best two leaves were in the front of the book at the "INTRODUCTION"!  (pictured here).  I was in awe with how brilliant the colors were.. and how well preserved they were too! 
   I figured this had to be the best shot and story I could have gotten for my literature shot.
  I was beaming happy when I came back into the bedroom and seen the Bible on the bed.
  "I found it," Juan said.  
  I thanked him.  But I had already gotten my picture.  I knew it.  🍁🍂

   And I love this picture! 
  
   There was a beautiful surprise inside of this book, that's for sure! :)
