Faith Barista: {Soul Rest Sunday} In the Secret Place. Hold On To Me.


Faith Barista is one of my favorite blogs.

While I may not read it as often as I could, I’m drawn to it at the times when I need it the most.

And this morning was one of those times.

I’m sharing this today, in the hopes that it may touch you as much as it did me.

Click on the link below and spend 5 minutes in peace.

Let’s try to carry that peace with us throughout the week:

{Soul Rest Sunday}

In the Secret Place. Hold On To Me.

God Bless.

Happy Valentine’s Day to my wonderful, loving, blanket stealing husband!Β  LOL!

Of course you know me, there’s a story behind everything…

Tim and I have an ongoing joke that he steals all the blankets, while he says “Noooooo – you push them over!”

And thenΒ we both smile with a twinkle in our eyes!

OK, in full disclosure, I do push them over…when my feet are burning hot!

Uh – oh!

Β He’s going to read this andΒ then I’ll be in for some gloating…I’ve admitted guilt!

Happy Valentine’s Day to my amazing gift from God!

Signed, Just Me πŸ™‚

And now for my daughters…

You are all my favorites!

My favorite Alex…

My favorite Sam…

My favorite Gabi…

{This will drive them crazy}

At some point or another, they’ve each asked told me ‘Come on, just admit it Mom…I’m your favorite…just say it once!’

There’s one inΒ particular thatΒ continues to push – not naming names…

but it’s theΒ artistic middle child o’ mine! πŸ™‚

I LOVE YOU ALL EQUALLY – for all the incredibleness that you are!

I love you to the moon and back…

and the Milky Way and back…

and the entire Universe and back!

{Yes, we used to argue about who loved who more}

{sigh}

Happy Valentine’s Day girls!

The Great Peep Connection


Peeps

They spoke to me.

Yesterday, when I stopped at the gas station to pick up a few things, I saw them.

Staring at me from atop the counter.

Begging me to take them home.

Pleading with me really.

‘Please take us home…rescue us from this gas station.’

I swear they really said that.

So, of course, you know me…I have to help everyone and everything.

And so, they came home with me.

And this morning, there were only 4 left.
