Grace in Small Things: Part 26 of 365

1. The beginnings of a treehouse going up in our backyard

2. Pink nail polish

3. Homemade falafel chilling in the fridge, waiting to be cooked up for lunch tomorrow and doused in tahini dressing, cucumbers, tomatoes, and fresh black bean hummus. Hmm, maybe we shouldn’t wait til tomorrow. A 10pm snack sounds like a better idea.

4. Dinner with friends…that I didn’t have to cook

5. Early bedtimes

Wage a battle against embitterment and take part in 365 days of Grace in Small Things

Amy, i have loved reading these. You have been such an encouragement to me in finding grace in the small things especially this time of year when the weather and sicknesses can keep us homebound for weeks . I have started my own lists and it has really started affecting the way i think about my days. So thanks!
