The Simple Woman's Daybook


Outside my window...dead leaves hanging and falling from trees

I am thinking...about breakfast

I am thankful...for today

From the learning rooms...developing academic independence 

In the kitchen...clean dishes in the dishwasher

I am wearing... a hoodie, jeans, slippers

I am creating...this blog post

I am going...to de-clutter downstairs

I am wondering...how long will it take(:

I am reading..."Safe Haven" by Nicholas Sparks!! 

I am hoping...to finish it today.

I am looking forward to...Christmas(:

I am hearing...the spin cycle on the washing machine

Around the house...I'm still putting up Christmas decorations

I am pondering...what life has in store for me and my family

One of my favorite things...quiet

A few plans for the rest of the week: shopping and wrapping gifts

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...

Gertha and Bertha!!! --- My sister and her family are in Germany.  It's hard during the holidays; I miss her much:(
  In this photo, we hadn't seen each other in three years!!!  (taken Aug. 2010)


Fruition

Father, I'm not understanding the "heart" change you are birthing through me.  I do not trust wholeheartedly what I emotionally endure. 
Be strong, quiet strength, pray, cry, scream, rejoice, and give praise!!!  
You continually and gently remind me, Believe, Trust and Obey.  And, that's what I will do.  


Gertha, Long suffering  -- bear this fruit, Walk in the Spirit.


Until next time....


"Choose Life"
