An evening walk

This evening Little's and I ventured out for a walk. It was not just any ordinary walk, our walk had a purpose.


We were blessed with the many beauties our Lord has created. We carefully passed by the fields of wild grass.

We wound our way down to the creek. And enjoyed the many wonders of water and marsh plants.

Upon reaching our destination we joyfully set about the business of collecting specimens of the most perfect shapes and colors. Taking care to harvest only a few here and there, noting we will be sure to return in the near future.


Once we returned home we reminisced, and gazed upon our prized possessions. Noting how lovely they will look in a white vase on the dinning room table.

Blessings to all


Now for the truth, the distance is about a stones throw from my back yard. The creek is just a drainage ditch that runs behind our house, and we were eaten alive by bugs. But in my mind it was a beautiful place and I was with my sweet little girl.

Pondering Life...

I am so thankful for my son... Deep thoughts, I wish time would stand still like this photo... He may be leaving us after his Dad returns home this fall. Jared, I love you and thank you for being you.

The Simple Breakfast

...There was wonderful oatmeal, steamed all night until each grain stood out softly and separately, with Chrystobel's cream to eat on it, cream almost as thick as the oatmeal. Eaten in old Haviland china saucers with sprigs of forget-me-not on them, and a silver spoon so old it was almost paper thin. Then there were hot rolls and dougnuts and coffee!! Simple breakfast indeed!

Now that is my kind of breakfast. Do you have passages that make you long for a simple life, with true beauty to enjoy? Please share!
