 Outside my window…  I hear the wind rustling through the Oleander bushes.

I am thinking… I really should invest more time with my children.   Enjoy life with them. 

From the learning rooms… I am teaching a daughter of mine to sit on the pot.

I am thankful for… A wonderful husband that through thick and thin,  he provides, without complaint, for the family.

From the kitchen… I am thinking of chicken and noodle pasta.

I am wearing … A crisp white tank top and a pink and coral striped skirt. 

I am reading… A Gathering of Finches by Jane Kirkpatrick and Argosy Junction by Chautona Havig

I am hoping… for a productive day.

I am creating… Skirts and jumpers and unmentionables for a client. 

I am praying… For peace and complete trust in our Heavenly Father.

Around the house… I see children’s toys being used.  I see laundry that I need to fold and put away, and a large tote of fabric I need to use up.

One of my favorite things… Butterflies dancing among the flower garden.

A few plans for the rest of the week… An out of town trip, a trip to the local bookstore for some new shoes for my daughter (they carry a few baby things), a bit of organizing in the shed, some time out to just sit and read with a cup of coffee.

A picture to share… Some of the unmentionables I was talking about.   My daughter and her Aunt Lorna.

 

I was telling someone this past week;
“It isnt that reading the Bible causes great things to happen in my life. Reading the Bible helps me to see God’s DAILY blessings!!”

It made me think of Pilgrims Progress.  He knew what to do yet it took him til almost the end of his journey and still lots of weak moments to fully rely on God’s instructions.  It was all those weak moments that he fully realized his weakness.  I still have a long journey to go but those weak moments are piling fast.   What daily encouragement and correction I can find in God’s Word.
