June Quotation
Then let us, one and all,
be contented with our lot;
The June is here this morning,
and the sun is shining hot;
Oh! let us fill our hearts up
with the glory of the day,

Once again, I would like to thank Lois for the
many calendars she has made for me and my
Daily Dose for all to enjoy. If you see something
you like, let her know! She has some prettty
June ones made already, so watch for all of
them in the coming days ....
According to the Georgian calendar, which is used over most of the world today, June is the sixth month. On the Roman calendar, it was considered the fourth month and had only 29 days. Julius Ceasar gave the month 30 days in 46 B.C., when he reformed the Roman calendar.
Spring
ends and summer begins around June 20, or 22 in the Northern
Hemisphere. It's the time that the flowers are beautiful. It is
especially the month for roses. In the Southern hemisphere, winter
begins during June, and it brings cold, rainy weather
to this part of the world.
Flag day is observed in the United States on June 14. It commemorates the day in 1777 when the Continental Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes as our flag. It then had only 13 stars, to match its 13 stripes.
It's not an official national holiday, but in Pennsylvania, it is a legal holiday. The President has proclaimed a public flag day observance every year. It was first observed to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the selection of the flag. President Harry S. Truman officially recognized June 14 as Flag Day by signing the National Flag Day Bill.

The rose is the flower for the month.
I love quotes and often quote others
to better express myself ....
It
almost sounds too simple to feel important,
but understanding the power
of gratitude can
change your life forever.
Sarah Breathnach said it
best...
"When we choose not to focus on what
is missing from our lives but are
grateful for the abundance that's
present...we experience
heaven on earth."
Every time you tear a leaf off a
calendar, you present a new place
for new ideas and progress ....
For those first morning viewers, thank you for your
patience in my page being published today. My website
was running slow and not uploading half the time, so it
took me longer than usual to put together a page. Anyway,
here I am - and here is June! Enjoy this first day of the
month - and be safe in all you do. Be aware of everything
and everyone around you. Have a good weekend and
please do join me again on Monday. Till then, I wish ....
