Simple Woman's Daybook

From my window~cool weather and sunshine

I am thinking~about getting child #1 ready for school next week and some grandparent visitors on the weekend

I am thankful for~nappers!

From the kitchen~freezing garden fresh tomatoes

I am wearing~capri sweatpants {I think this has become my mom uniform}

I am blessed~to have a husband who loves being with his children

I am hearing~children who are playing

Around the house~laundry: some needing folding, some needing to be put away and some that needs  washed


My favorite things~a husband who likes to grill our meals

The rest of the week~go to the new dance studio and get everything ready for classes for child #1 and pooh bear.

A verse~2 Corinthians 12:9a " But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.'"

A picture~


Dad cut her bangs 2 months ago we haven't touched them since. They are finally looking good. Lesson: dad's are not good hairdressers!

    I've always been thankful for children who are nappers, too!

Little man the earliest of my early risers today... 6:40 Heading to the bus stop and guess what we needed for a second day in a row! Its Thursday so we head to CBS. Studying 1 &2 Kings this year.

Girls are just jamming to their own beat! Tonight's vegetable {for mommy and daddy} oven roasted bacon wrapped aspargus!!!!!!!!!!! Dessert tonight a few Wilbur buds from Litiz PA.

My little {BIG} fear

So here's my little confession: I have big fears and little fears. But lately one particularly has been plaguing me { AGAIN }.

In the Lenten study package was The Names of God Bible reading challenge . I am really thrilled to focus in on the Names of God for this season. Preparing my heart for the Easter season. So today, the sanctuary needed cleaned. All the stations needed put back in the closets and offices that they were borrowed from. Little ...
