Wordless Wednesday - Bring on the Feast!

Wordless Wednesday - A Beautiful Sight (to this momma at least!)

Home

This fall has been an unusual one for me in more ways than our local weather. I have been invited to travel more than I am used to. The final destinations have been varied, my purposes in going have been diverse, the people I've traveled with have changed from trip to trip. Its all been good, and I have been thankful for the opportunities.

Yesterday I returned from the last trip in the foreseeable future (at least the last trip in which I leave my kids behind). It ended with a sigh of relief and a prayer of thanksgiving for safe travels.

Relief that I am home again.

And while I acknowledge that my earthly home is fleeting and can change in a heartbeat, today I am giving thanks for the home God has blessed me with. Not just the physicality of it, although I am thankful for that, but mainly for the relationships that make it up and the joy of falling to sleep at night knowing we are once again together under the same roof.

Dear Reader:

Just finished a delightful little book with a long title: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer. The entire book took the form of letters. I didn't think I would like it. A book made of letters sounded hard to read. I was wrong. In fact I enjoyed it so much, it has left me with a compulsion to write letters, or at least write in letter form. There is something romantic about a letter, don't you think?

Have you noticed the general lack of activity on this blog (is that presumptuous of me to ask?)? I know it is silly of me to assume you would take notice of something so small. I ask only because it is something I have noticed. I can't say it is because I have had nothing to say or because I have been too busy. I think it is more that I'm not sure how to say what I want to say and so I say nothing at all.

I am going to try to change that. Hopefully you will be hearing from me again soon.

Love,

Megs

Wordless Wednesday - I think I see a pattern emerging...

Listening In

Twin: Mom, I want a snack!

Mommy: Okay, how about some pretzels?

Twin: No, I don't want pretzels. I want something that starts with an S.

Mommy: An S?

Twin: Yes, something that starts with an S, or an I, or an M, or an O, or an N.... can I have some cheese?


Once he learns to spell, snack time should be really interesting!

Wordless Wednesday - What can I say, the kid loves PB&J!
