Dear Friend

The Simple Woman’s Daybook 2/6/10

FOR TODAY…

Outside my window… It’s snowing

I am thinking… how do I get our rhythms/routines back on track

I am thankful for… my husband’s new job

I am wearing… a paisley green shirt, denim skirt & grey cashmere sweater

I am remembering…my dear friend who gave me the sweater

I am currently reading…Crazy Love

I am hoping… we can figure out a new home for us before our lease is up

On my mind… menu planning

Noticing that…the house is still messy but it’s getting  better

Pondering these words…

“This is the year of Instead. It rolls off my tongue a little easier every day, and his friend, Yes, has been popping her head in more often, too. The key is to say the word first, quickly, then pause to think about how to make it happen. The children will help you, their hearts pounding a little faster when they realize their request is now a strong possibility. ” ( http://mamahooper.blogspot.com/2010/01/year-of-instead.html )

From the kitchen… Lentil Soup

Around the house… Kids Playing Hide & Seek

One of my favorite things~  Holding a sleeping baby

Stitch Fix outfit

So glad you stopped by. I am a Christian wife and mother of 8 in the middle years. My kids are aged 4 to 20 and just about every 2 years in between. I write about our life as a big family, what God is personally doing in my life, food and books.
