Simple Daybook ~ 20 March, 2013

FOR TODAY

Outside my window... a cloudy sky, a beautiful flowering bush, and two mockingbirds doing some kind of dance on the garage roof next door

I am thinking... about how many things have changed in just a few years, mostly me, and how some of those changes are good, and some not so much

I am thankful... for my children and the smile they bring to my face with each thought of them and remembrances of times past

In the kitchen... a turkey is in store for us today

I am wearing... skirt, snowman sweatshirt jacket, and pajama top ;-)

I am creating... dishcloths that I started knitting on recent trip to Oregon

I am going... nowhere, in more ways than one

I am wondering... how to make each moment last as long as possible

I am reading... The Hobbit

I am hoping... for complete renewal and revival in my heart and my children's

I am looking forward to... getting our garden beds ready to plant

I am learning ...  just how deceptive our hearts (my heart) can be

Around the house ...  need to sweep and keep the floors clean now that little P is crawling

A favorite quote for today... Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.  Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, love them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you.

One of my favorite things... An open window with the sun coming through

A few plans for the rest of the week: work on garden beds, get family ready for new flooring, cook, bake bread and a cake, watch my attitude
