Leaf

Sometimes its the little things in life that make one happy, such as...a leaf!

My roommate and I were very excited to find a brown leaf on the ground today in downtown Minneapolis. For your information, this is a rare and precious sight for this time of year.

    so many times, i think that i need something like really BIG to satisfy me and make me happy. but, i've found that by getting more bigger and supposedly "better" things, it just makes me greedy and unthankful.
    it's these little things that forces me to look around me and count my blessings. to pay attention to the things i take for granted (:
    lovely post and blog!
    xoxo

    Dear Hannah,
    My heart goes out to you! It's just terrible about your brother. How old were you when he died? I am praying for all of you.
    I am the second of a homeschooling family too. We have nine kids too. :-)
    This blog is such an encouragement.
    Do you all have Bible names? We do. We also have a Hannah.

      Naomi,
      I was 12 when my brother died. God has been very good and gracious to me. He gives me strength for each day, so that in spite of my sorrows, I can rejoice in the promises of Christ.
      I am glad you find my blog encouraging. Thank you for stopping by and visiting it.
      Yes, all of my siblings have Bible names, as well. ;)

Winnie the Pooh

I have a confession. Ok, not really a confession because just about everyone who actually knows me knows it and I am not ashamed of it, but.... I have an obsession, of sorts, with Winnie the Pooh! Yes, go ahead and laugh, but seriously, I kind of like him a lot (ok, not as much as Cowboys, but that is a different story). So my car has a little Winnie the Pooh hanging on the mirror and he basically is my friend that accompanies me on all my road trips and road adventures of getting lost (happens a lot). So, whether you like it or not this post is Winnie the Pooh quotes. I probably just scared away half my readers, but you know if you can't put up with my Winnie the Pooh obsession for just one day than that is really just too bad. Be thankful I did not decide to do a Seven Brides for Seven Brothers post instead. I would understand if you left me after that. That would be the testing of whether we are true friends or not, but this time I am just sticking with Winnie the Po...

Reminiscences of a Pencil

That's not a very good picture, but those are some of my pencils. I like little pencils as you can see. My Pencil Stub You dear faithful old friend, With you I wrote a letter to send. With you I wrote some Poetry. With you I wrote a sweet story. You are now old and worn For many hours of school you’ve borne. Together you and I will make history Together we unfold a mystery. I used you every fleeting day If only to pass the hour away. I used you tall; I used you short. I used you to write my oral report.   With you I wrote of days long past. With you I wrote what happened last. I used you when you were just a stub You are my friend; you are my bub. Live for Jesus! Love one another! Laugh a lot! Smile big! ☺

Hidden Treasures From the Thrift Stores

-

I know it can be kind of discouraging for Christians girls, who really desire to dress modestly, to go shopping. Often times it is very hard to find something that is modest. Yet if you look hard enough, you can find the hidden treasures. One of my favorite places to buy clothes is at the thrift stores. That way I can get a good deal and there is also usually more of a variety. Therefore, today my mom, sister, and I went shopping and we're blessed to find two very nice (at least in my opinion), but also modest dresses. This is my dress. I am wearing a white t-shirt with it, because it only has straps. This is Priscilla's  dress. So my encouragement to ya'll girls out there trying to dress modestly: DON'T GIVE UP! There is modest clothing out there, it just might take a bit of searching. Also, don't forget to check out the thrift stores. That is where I find almost all of my clothes. People are all the time getting rid of their clothes that are in really...
