Loved.

Five simple and wonderful things from this week.
1. Sitting on the couch with my boy. He reached over and grabbed my hand. Definitely a high moment of the week!

2. I love candy hearts! But, only Brachs brand. Not those other knock-offs. 
It must be Brachs. Filled a bowl in the beginning of the week. Didn't last long in my house.

3. I have been waking up early. Really early. Even on the days I don't have to. 
The benefit? Some quiet time. Just me, a blanket, a cup of tea and my iPad.

4. An "I Love You" text from my husband. On a day when I really needed it. He is the best!

5. At the end of a long day, nothing feels better than my fuzzy slippers on my tired feet. 
And, yes, I am wearing Christmas socks.


This week has been full of ups and downs. In the midst of it all, I have felt treasured and loved. 
By my family and my God.


All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
- The Desert Song, Hillsong

Your love never fails
It never gives up
It never runs out on me
On and on and on and on it goes
It overwhelms and satisfies my soul
And I never have to be afraid
One thing remains
- One Thing Remains, Jesus Culture

What a creative post so. I love all the pictures, but two stand out. Your hands together, and the love you apps from you husband. I see family love in both! Thats heartwarming in this cold time.
