Walking and Waking

Giving thanks….

#1627  My brother here for his “Spring Break” weekend.  That he is smiling wide.  That Darling daughter took this picture.  For the gift of his life.

#1628  That Hubby holds my hand, and suggested a walk, and kisses me (and how the kids declare, “That’s a bad movie” when we kiss) and his bear hugs; full of thankfulness for him and his love.

#1629  For Sunshine-head’s engineering mind, this gun he made, and the barrette trigger that moves when you shoot.

#1630  For the joy of being called, “Mom”.  For the flowers they pick for me and give me as gifts. 

 
#1631  For the call from our case worker, another baby…not feeling like this is probably it, but praying for wisdom for birthmom as she chooses next week, and hope stirring just the same, and grateful for so many moms who are making the brave decision to give life to their babies and place them in a loving home.

#1632  For Darling daughter’s latest round of photography; thankful for the creativity God has given her and that I can understand her need to not color in the lines or stay inside the box.

#1633   For the blessing of living by the lake; for the aliveness of spring- the growth, the green, the beauty of our surroundings.

Thank You God!

MEET KATIE

Hi, I'm Katie (a Modern Martha, wife, and mom to five). I'm so glad you're here! Let's enjoy some cut-to-the-chase conversation over hot or iced tea, as we find grace in the unraveling of life (together). Let's exchange try-hard striving for hope-filled freedom as we settle into our position as a doer and a daughter—created by a Loving Father.
