in the rain...

I'm off to Green Bluff this morning...it's a tradition with me and my beautiful and amazing daughters!

Each year we trudge on out in the early morning hours to visit the different farms and pick out pumpkins we carve together....

blessings i am eternally grateful for 

and even better......this year it will be raining on our little adventure!  

for me, the rain makes everything better.......

it takes an average day and makes it magical...the mesmerizing sound of windshield wipers back and forth, the reflected lights of cars in puddles nearby...for me, the very definition of cozy.

and i am happy and thankful for all of this..........thankful for the steaming cup of coffee in my hand as I watch the rain from my living room window......

thank You, Father for these yearly moments with my children...for these rainy moments of warmth and coziness...

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." *James 1:17*

this time...

I've been very ill for about the last 5-6 days...just today i've started to feel like myself again...

Thank You Father, for my amazing and understanding children! they have been there for me every step of the way...(though I missed both Silverwood and Lord of the Rings with them).

And thank You Father for healing me bit by bit and day by day...

many years later...

 I'm so happy to post again...it's been too long and the journey filled with blessings and heartache but i've missed this blog and sharing what the Lord has done in my life and those closest to me...

I wonder how your journey has been...what lessons you've learned and taught the others in your lives and all the moments in between...

i will post again soon and may God bless you for stopping by!
