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. ;)

Magic of the Forest

Not in a hurry, Not too briskly, She stepped Ever so lightly, Almost fairy like, But still quite humanly, Into the forest.   Really it was a matter Of one small step Out her door That immediately Ushered her into A land of trees, Crunchy leaves, Green and brown and grey, Rocks and stumps And beds of moss Beneath her feet. Trees that sway, Branches and logs, Spider webs to fight.   But it’s really the sounds, Or lack thereof, That perks her heart to listen. That is where The magic begins. The sounds in the forest, Are birds and chattering squirrels, Critters of the earth Slithering stealthily Beneath brown leaves. But another sound is heard In the deep of the woods Surrounded by trees And creatures of the earth.   The sound of peace, A...

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...

What is your favorite missionary biography that you have ever read? 5. Who are your three favorite authors? I would love to hear your answers to these questions, and it doesn’t really have to be your “favorite ever read book” just one that you really liked.
