For Today...
Outside my Window... The street is empty. In the distance, past the rooftops of neighbouring houses, I see the trees upon the hill rustling beneath a granite coloured sky. Autumn is on it's way I think :0)
I am thinking... When the baby falls asleep for her nap i'll go downstairs and make dinner and read with the girls.
I am thankful for... How blessed I am too feel God working in and through my life. Having healthy, happy girls. Fullfillment. Finding Joy in simple things. And a gift of hope in life that I know will stay with me no matter what.
From the kitchen... Penne with fresh tomatoe and basil sauce for dinner.
I am wearing... A brown smock top and a long denim skirt.
I am reading... "Who told you that you were naked?" by Br. John Jacob Raub.
I am hoping... That a friend of mine that has been having some struggles will soon find peace.
I am creating... Memories, a journal for my girls, Homemade Christmas gifts.
I am hearing... My little 16 month old babbling instead of snoring like she should be. Maybe she's growing out of naptime ;0)
Around the house... Laundry as usual...
One of my favorite things... How about 4! Listening to my girls play outside making up imaginary stories. A nap in the afternoon after a busy morning, with the little ones snuggled up beside me.
Lighting candles in the evening and saying prayers and reading stories with the girls cuddled up in a quilt on the sofa. A good cup of tea.
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week... Getting my four year old ready to start school (sob;0(
Making the most of the last three days of the holidays. Finishing off some craft projects for Christmas presents. Posting an aid box to Zimbabwe.
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
