The Simple Woman's Daybook #2

FOR TODAY

Outside my window are gargantuan hostas, pink and white azaleas, and a quaint birdhouse. 

I am thinking this is a season of change, but change is good.

I am thankful for friends who truly care...a daughter that still calls me "mommy"...a phone call from Afghanistan at 4am this morning.


I am praying for direction, and peaceful transition into this next phase of the journey.

From the kitchen...steak, potatoes and salad (I think)

I am wearing plaid bermuda shorts and like last Wednesday, the Tommy Hilfiger Sweatshirt bought in LA on Rach’s 13th birthday. (coincidence!)

I am creating photo albums and scrapbooks...and Tyler/Em's rehearsal dinner "program & decor"

I am going to Cornerstones orientation this weekend...

I am reading “When Life is Hard” by James MacDonald...

I am hoping for an earlier arrival window for Tyler than what we're anticipating...

I am hearing the sound of wind chimes...

Around the house, it’s peaceful right now, but soon Britt will be home (maybe with Creighton) and WGH should be returning later this evening.

One of my favorite things is a peaceful, relaxing home.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Clean, pack, errands, Cornerstone

Here is the picture for thought I am sharing…




















a great memory...one I hope to experience again "Venice" with my BFF/WGH.  (Not doing the super short hair again though!)
