Loveliness

Oh, how lovely,
Is the morning,
Is the morning
When the quiet,
Is blissfully heard,
Blissfully heard.
Thank-You, Lord!
Thank-You, Lord!

– A revised edition of
“Oh, How Lovely Is the Evening”

This morning was an early morning again . . . we’ve gotten into going to bed later and getting up later. It’s hard to pull yourself out of bed, but it is well worth the quiet before the hubbub of life starts over again for the day.

Yesterday the boys were thrilled to go iceskating!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ah, the joys of boys! Well, I’m anxious to get the skates on myself.

And these past few days my activites included making several batches of granola and some hot chocolate mix. I enjoy having time to do this after the busyness of summer activities. I’m also having fun using scraps and material that I’ve collected for comforters. Most of them I send to Christian Aid. I just enjoy the fun of putting them together and knowing that someone else also gets joy in being warmer.

God bless your day!
