Reminders

Just a few gentile reminders for your summer adventures.... (click the pix for a larger version)












These four have a way of reminding me of what is truly important, to laugh at myself often, how often I fall short, to see the wonder in the small and that life isn't about getting, rather it is about bending low in giving.

This is why I need Jesus above all, I need Him....

    LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS POST! How very very true! Did I say that all this is so true! Thank you for reminding me that when I stop to see Cape for what God has made him and for what he is in His eyes, I remember my task at hand is MUCH MUCH deeper than the toddler behaviors, and big messes! How is it these lil guys know more than us sometimes? ;) Without even knowing it they are teachers straight from God to their parents!

      Yes, God often uses my children (I say often like every day all day) to remind me how much like my children that I am....I just look better on the outside, I mean I just cover it up better. Thanks for stopping by sweet cousin! Sorry for the late reply!

Just Me

I steal a few moments away by myself.  Alone.  Just me. So I drive down to the weekly farmer's market to buy some peaches and romaine lettuce. Yes, my mother would be proud.       The seagulls are screeching. The lake is glistening against the sun's radiance. I smile and stumble along, almost feeling out of place with out the 7 tag-a-longs. (I said almost )     Just me, thinking about how special this place is. And how Good the Lord is. How faithful He is to provide. And how really, I love it here.

Never Too Late for Friday Favs!

Yes, I know it's Sat. It's actually lateish Sat. evening. FridayFavs are actually supposed to be posted on Friday. Which is not today. Obviously. Oh, time management we have already decided you are one of my greatest foes. However, since the past couple of weeks have been, well pretty wonderful I thought I would share in more of the fun and favorite things we did together. These here are some of our Favs from when the laundry fairy (AKA Nana) was still in town.  Making sweet treats     And a Pinata And just for the record Pinatas are hard to make. It is a project that takes about a week. Not 2 or 3 days Unless you live in the South and can put it outside to dry in Oct.     Best. Dad. Ever.     Ironman. Meg (from Little Women). And a pirate, of course. I love them all. Well, the children dressed up as them anyway.     Yup. This here is the...

Winter Is

  Winter Is...       Naps on the couch     Good Reads. With leaves for bookmarkers.     Lots of light saboring.       Snow Forts.       Dogs pulling a sled 200 miles.     And the musher behind them.     Coats zipped up to our eyeballs     Frozen Face. Seriously, his face was frozen.      Skiing   Falling down while skiing     Success! while skiing.       Lot's of yelling, "Do the pizza!!!" at skiing children.     Together.
