Grace in Small Things: Part 2

Categories

1. Seeing Levi’s overwhelming love for his brother as they were apart for the first time today. I didn’t think I would survive the “Where Bighton?” questions every 5 minutes, but that was MUCH easier than enduring the tears and refusal to eat until Brighton return at dinnertime. Seriously, I swear he loves B more than me now.

2. The unexpected 3 hour nap time…allowing me 3 unexpected hours of glorious alone time. To read, nap and enjoy #3.

3. Crocuses coming up all over our backyard. There is hope, warmth will return again some day!

4. The Bota Box

5. Washing dishes to Meiko

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

I’m a mother of two minismiths (with the third having beat us all to heaven, lucky duck), wife to Matthew, crazy-loved daughter of the King, and fervent believer in the healing power of bluegrass music.

We are once again beginning the journey to meet our sweet little minismith #3. Let the adoption laboring pangs begin!
