Welcome to My Blog!
Schooling two active boys has never been more... interesting. That's the word I'm looking for!
I love my boys! God has given them the blessing of strong, active bodies and minds. We continually pray the first will remain intact, and the second will remain engaged with Him first, and then the school work. You'll meet my sweet sons, both entirely different, but both loving God to the best of their ability in the way He made them. I lovingly refer to them as my Bell Pepper Boy and my Habanero or Hambone. That should say it all!
This blog is an eclectic mix. The events, conversations, and the thoughts behind it all will be in here.
Every once in a while I'll try to capture something I don't want to forget. I hope you find things you enjoy. Please let me know if you do!
Blessings!

The Calm Before. . .
Posted in Celebrations!
Good morning, friends. You will all relate to this moment I'm having right now. I'm just savoring it while I can. So, welcome to my entry praising God for the stillness of the morning with a little hot tea (with honey and just a tiny bit of sugar), the Bible, and my laptop. *sigh*
Here I am at the kitchen table. The quiet morning punctuated by the occasional sigh of a sleeping dog. The birds are quietly pecking at their scratch for the morning every so often. A couple rooms away I can hear the bass-like, intermittent rumblings of my Dashing Hero's snores. The only constant sound is the soft whirring of our air purifier fan.
Ahhhh...the tea is gurgling and waiting for me to finish it...
As I contemplate a moment like this, I just have to be thankful. As you know, I recently had a moment with friends over that was complete chaos. I'm sure they didn't believe that this house ever settled down to anything close to this. It's not like this too often where "outsiders" would see it. You see, you have to get up pretty early to have a moment like this in our house. ;')
The boys are quietly slumbering. The Dashing Hero is quietly...ummm...he's slumbering, too. These are the moments a lovely sunrise might peek through the window, if it wasn't one of those overcast mornings. Well, sunshine or no, this is the lovely day the Lord has made! I will rejoice and be glad in it! Soon they will stir. It will be a very different household in a few moments. But, I will love that part of it, too!
I pray you all have some quiet stillness in your homes to thoroughly savor soon...if you haven't already!
 A morning like this deserves this kind of signature!
