We are so thankful for the long hours of daylight during the week after work. Spring and Summer turns nearly every evening of the week into a partial weekend. After a long, cold, dark winter- the glory of daylight after work is not wasted on us. Our evenings are simple, and wonderful. We come to … Continue reading Snuggle time all the time!

Purposeful or Lovely
Have nothing in your house that you do not know how to be useful, or believe to be beautiful. - William Morris. Easier said than done. The guest room is my catch-all. It displays the sprawl of my Goodwill pile, my "needs to be put away" pile, my "needs to be done" pile, and my … Continue reading Purposeful or Lovely
Basket of Joy
"What you sow is what you grow, a person harvests only what he plants." I probably have already mentioned, but I love the concept of sowing and reaping. Even from a young age, I just got it. The concept always been a comfort to me honestly, like the deep truth that everything living one day … Continue reading Basket of Joy

It was a highly anticipated trip for many reasons, and we all (dogs included) are still coming down from what a great time it was to have some of our most precious souls with us for a little while. Mum loves … Continue reading Witnessing Joy.
Daily joy.
Next time you think of beautiful things, don't forget to count yourself in. Blows my mind that Jesus considers us to be more gorgeous than any plant/animal/star/precious gem that he made. (Bit of extra bonus if you are a female- literally the pinnacle of creation, the last and final great work.) And yet, it's entirely … Continue reading Daily joy.
I am a little quail.
(And you might be too.) Baby quail are speedy quick. They are about the size of a fuzzy walnut, and cross one end of their bucket to the other in nanoseconds. They are busy... they are 2 days old, but they have the quail legs of Usain Bolt. Adult quail are equally busy. They have … Continue reading I am a little quail.
