A Home School Season...

Happy Birthday to Me!

Tomorrow I turn the sweet age of 40.
Yep, I'm catching up with my wiser friends.
Today I received the most wonderful early birthday gift straight from the hand of God.

SNOW!
Right outside my very own window.



He knows how much I like to just look at it. Growing up on the East Coast, I've shoveled  plenty of snow.  I don't miss it. But every once in a while I like to just admire the way it covers the trees and makes the grass disappear. This morning was perfect, we got just enough to admire for me and just enough for the children to run out and play in, even if it was only for a little while.

By noon it was pretty much a memory.

What started off the morning looking like this...........




Ended up looking like this an hour later. JOY!




Thank you Lord, for the little things that bring me joy.
The time with my family and friends.
The time you've given me on the earth to live this life you've blessed me with.
The time you've given me to enjoy all that you have made.
Thank you Father,for blessing me with so many good things.
And especially the snow today. Amen.

I thought about you all around Valentine's Day - I knew your birthday was in February but couldn't remember the date!! So glad you had such a beautiful snow, I always love the way it makes the yard sparkle! I'm so jealous you get to go to the Creation Museum - it's on my list of places to go sometime soon too! I hope it's absolutely fabulous for you, I know you'll do a great job of giving us a good report! You are so blessed and such a blessing to everyone around you. THANKS for being such a great friend, even across the miles!!

About Me

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under the sun. A time to be born and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted; a time to kill and a time to heal ... a time to weep and a time to laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance ... a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to lose and a time to seek; a time to rend and a time to sew; a time to keep silent and a time to speak; a time to love and a time to hate; a time for war and a time for peace. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
