Be joyful
though you have considered all the facts. Wendell Berry
I have been pondering the above quote. I tend to have "anticipatory" fatigue and stress when I consider what is ahead of me on any given week. I am determined to laugh, and be joyful no matter how busy my life may get. I want to live in and enjoy the present moment and be joyful. This is my list this week.
of houseful of really wonderful teenage boys (it is so fun to feed boys)
52. A walk with Anna
51. Feeding
53. Autumn beauty
54. Six weeks of homeschooling and I am still not behind! (this is a big deal)
55. Improved health for my mom
56. Encouragement from other women
57. Laughter
58. The Lord's mercy to send the right book, post, or word at the right time
59. a little boy's soft heart after a hard day of stubbornness
60. stretch jeans (too many fun size candy bars!)
