Learning As We Go
Jul. 18, 2008
Thankful

Posted in Family Life

I am surrounded by God's goodness these days-- or rather, I have always been surrounded, but lately I have eyes to see and ears to hear. 

:: mountain roses, blooming their hearts out

:: baby raspberries (especially ones that spew applesauce all over me)

:: red-throated house finches, singing on the rooftop

:: sunflowers

:: my four year-old, singing about her purple shoes

:: the smell of basil on my hands as I pinch off the flowers

:: tomatoes, weighing down the vine

:: my five year-old, playing piano for any and all who will listen

:: old friends who pop by at a moment's notice

:: an eight year-old boy reading on the couch in the sunshine
