  • Saturday-afternoon nap with my girl.
  • Weeding all afternoon with my boy.
  • Divine appointments walking right up to my door. Who said being a stay-at-home-mom is dull?
  • Victory over the mice!
  • My five minute stare-down competition between me and mr. mouse on the stairs while Jeff set the traps. We won.
  • “Eve Noel Sternke” introducing herself over and over. Listening to her sing along to Rend the Heavens on the ipod. So fun have her with us this week.
  • My husband who goes above and beyond. All the time.
  • An epiphany about playdates.
  • Kindred spirits.
  • A pedicure.
  • That real kind of amazing God-connection that’s so rare and so wonderful you can hardly put it to words.
  • Choosing home.
  • New ideas.
  • Wedding pictures.
  • Priya and Rachael–what gems!
  • Pulled pork. Yes, please!
  • Chocolate covered strawberries. Yes, please!
  • The house quiet and clean on a Saturday night. Absolutely, please!
  • Kids downing 4 lbs. of fresh strawberries in one day.
  • Sleeptime tea before bed.
  • Watching the sun set out my bedroom window.
  • Clean sheets, crisp from the clothesline.
  • Simple pleasures.
  • So richly blessed.
  • Thank you, Lord, for your amazing grace.

Happy weekend … thanks for reading.

  1. Just love you and your wonderful thoughts of all the blessings in a day. So many people count what they think went wrong with their day, never giving a second thought of what what was good.

  3. how great is our God? 🙂

    I also got a pedicure (and manicure) a couple of days ago! It was nice. 🙂 I rarely ever have my nails painted… the last time was at my wedding in August! My husband got me a gift card on Valentine’s Day to get a mani/pedi and I finally used it! 🙂

    have a wonderful Sunday!

    p.s. chocolate-covered strawberries are DELICIOUS!

    1. ooh fun! Yeah…I think it was a year ago when my toenails were last painted. So glad you got a little pampering as well… Hope your weekend was great!

  5. heavy sigh. love love love that photo. miss you so. Yay for the victory over mice, mouse? Must have been that STERN look of yours….

    1. Must have been the 9 mousetraps and heavy dose of D-Con. 🙂 Yes, for the time being we have victory! Miss you too…praying God opens a way to be closer. Love you & pray you have a blessed day off today!
