I completely realize that I have failed to give proper attention here the last four (four?!) months, but I wanted to wait until I was in our new house to write a new post. That hasn't happened yet (It will!) but I felt impressed to write today. So I am.
Some days I shamelessly allow myself to get too stressed over things that I cannot control. I don't know why I do it, but it happens more than I would like. Especially recently. Ben is so wise though, I don't know what I would do without him when I go off on my little selfish tangents.
Today I jotted down things that I love. In no particular order, just things that make life so much more wonderful.
. husband and his way with words
. ruby and her big head
. my dad's hot apple cider
. the smell of old books
. love letters
. grace (endless amounts of it)
. scratchy records
. fries ( I wish I didn't love them so)
. compliments (giving and receiving)
. cold weather
. sigur ros
. discussing baby names
. sing a longs
. naps
I'm thankful for these things. I really am pretty blessed, even when I think otherwise. God is so thoughtful to allow me to learn patience in its truest form these last couple of months. I know He will use this experience later on for His glory, and I'm happy that I can be apart.
I hope you are able to reflect on lovely things this evening, too.
