it's time

My heart seeks joy.
Looking in the everyday.
In the little things.
The sweet moments of life.
Grateful.

these are a few of  my
(can you believe this is my 6th week doing this?)
friday favorite things | finding joy

my new collection of cookbooks

orange juice mixed with ginger ale

frozen mango chunks

little boys drawing with chalk in warmer weather

listening to those same boys giggle as they watch the original Veggie Tales

being thankful for netflix where we can stream those Veggie Tale movies

Old Mason Jars

the fact that our drinking glasses are Mason Jars
(please tell me one of you uses them as well)

Reading and Discussing and Debating Animal Farm with Hannah

Napoleon the Pig (named after the character in Animal Farm) on our kitchen wall

fresh berries

holding Samuel

Brennan, the brave knight, doing his homework

realizing that Brennan gets reading
(you know that day where they go from sounding out to just reading? He did it!)

Chobali yogurt

my pen/pencil/eraser/marker/colored pencil/tape catch-all box

glue

glue that isn't dripping all over the place

and that it was glue that I purchase for $.19 at Target in the fall

clean kitchen counters

clean kitchen counters that stay clean for longer than ten minutes

kitchen counters that were cleaned that are now full of school books

having my children home with me with their school books on the kitchen counter

little feet

rainboots mixed with winter boots

thinking about putting away those winter boots

reading my Bible

Gracie's Bible in her yellow crocheted bag


reading Philippians

prayer
(and would you pray for us today? Todd has his oncology check-up this morning)

and 

that we are in April
(which decreases the potential for snow greatly)

oh yeah, and this picture of my Samuel.
Love.
