Just for fun
Sweet Simple things. . . . .
Rich making me coffee before he left for work
a calm school day
when we laughed when Caleb came out of my room with my neglected coffee. . . .he was drinking it. . . . .
when we tried making beads out of homemade playdough. When we baked them in the oven they puffed out like strange marshmallows.
when we made cookies (jam thumbprints)
seeing Caleb’s reaction to his cookie (he ate the jam out first)
receiving Caleb’s hug and face rub into my clean outfit. . .now I am walking around with jam on myself
taking a nap
hearing yet another “Little Liza” story. Making them up is “all the rage” at my house (the imagination is amazing!)
talking with friends on the phone
reading “Spot”. . . again. . .and that “truck book” again. . . .
being trapped in the house because of the cold
making homemade soup
waiting for my husband to get home
knowing it’s FRIDAY!
(he came home with roses)
Good to be Home 
What a fun day you had with your children. I LOVE days when I just really pay attention to the simple things that make me smile. Have a wonderful weekend. ~Michelle
Ah, a good day, a good day. Thank you Lord
btw~you take amazinfg photos with that little camera of yours!
What a nice day. I made homemade soup today, too. It was the perfect day for it. 🙂
what a lovely day and post! And it’s Friday!! =)
what a sweet day =]
Homemade soup on a cold day sounds good.
What a great reminder of all of the “little” things that we often neglect to rejoice in and treasure! 🙂
You post the most lovely of thoughts and the prettiest of pictures!
You certainly shared what should be our top priority…..enjoying the simple things…..the peace that passes understanding comes from being grateful to the Lord for those simple things. How beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing!
Lovely!!
And did Caleb sleep after drinking the coffee???? Hope he didn’t drink too much… You should post a synopsis of the Little Liza stories! 🙂 I love the picture with you holding camera and child at the same time!!! very good!
I’m so glad that you had a nice day. And Thank you for commenting my site. I saw some pictures that you had posted the other day, and one of your sons had on is 18th century coat. He looked nice in it….Kelly
I almost forgot that you had asked me if I knew about Tasha Tudor. Yes, I do and I collect her books. I have 4 about her life, and 46 book that she had wrote or illustrated.
Yes, I sometimes check Birds and Blooms out from the library. I love to cut out the pictures from old copies of it and its sister magazines to make picture books in albums for my grandchildren. I do put out a hummingbird feeder in the summer months ~ they are such special little birds.
By the way, I sent you an e-mail last week, asking a question ~ did you get it?
Sounds like a lovely day indeed.
Such sweet simple things in life. Such treasures. Simple treasures. It all sounds wonderful. I know what you mean about walking around with jam all over you. 🙂 How sweet to receive roses from your husband. I know that made you feel special.
i love your list! mine would include cuddling with my cat, reading a joke book with my 6 yr old ( who laughs at the most lame ones!) and dancing to the rapunzel movie with my 3 yr old. 🙂
A perfect day! Life is so rich when we revel in all the sweet, simple things! Love, Heather
