A Weekend to be Thankful For...

Our little family shared a lovely Mother's Day weekend.  After an eventful week that involved hours of driving, an afternoon in the ER with Lucy (she's fine - she probably didn't swallow any of the pills but we had to be sure), and a lot of activity around residents and new apartments, it was a welcome reprieve. 


Today, I'm thankful for:

• the beginning of farmer's market season
• horse-drawn wagon rides downtown
• new haircuts
• long walks in the woods with walking sticks, bog monsters and fertile imaginations
• a newly overturned garden with fewer raspberry bushes
• a stack of twigs ready to mark the rows of planted seeds
• sleeping littles in the next room
• a husband who desires better things for our family - like spending time reading inspirational books together
• a church who encourages doing the hard work of discernment instead of a "do not" list.
• skype dates with family far away

Enjoy your week.  Hoping to post some project updates soon!
