The ironing board doesn’t come out much these days…but when it does, I often find myself (entertained) and kept company with a helper.
B is quick to find his iron and create an ironing board out of anything close whenever he sees me get to work…
Oh, how I wish this task brought my heart the joy that it brings this little guy!
Be blessed.
Okay…summers here and I need a little accountability!

A couple days ago, a friend of a friend mentioned this book.
Upon investigating, downloading to my kindle and not being able to put down…I would concur….it is simply fantastic.

I continue to be humbled as I realize who and what God uses to make Himself evident in my heart and in our neck of the wood.
Happy Reading.
May your hearts be blessed.
I know time doesn’t grow on trees…
But carving out time to watch/listen to this will be well worth the time spent. Dr. Bailey addresses the time old and ever current question of “why does God allow bad things to happen?”
It is amazing how God uses people to encourage in ways they might not ever know.
Thank you Dr. Bailey!

Pinterest introduced it to me.
But you better believe that I have a shoe shopping & Sharpee date with a very special someone…

B’s last day of school was last week. As an end of the year gift, his teacher made each student a special memory book. B was thrilled by the opportunity to share the book after dinner one night. He ‘read’ each word and told C all about the photos…it was a sweet glimpse into our little guy’s world.
Be blessed.
This progression of photos hardly portrays the antics that this little one participates in…such joy…such a gift.
Be blessed.
