The Simple Woman's Daybook- May 11,2009

Stop in and visit Peggy over at Simple Woman's Daybook.




For Today... May 11,2009

Outside my window...beautiful sunny day- a little chilly though:)

I am thinking... about the dedication of our grandson, Sam, yesterday at Daniel and Jess's church in Milwaukee. What a touching service and then great preaching from the Word. I was blessed.

I am thankful for... my loving family and the wonderful day that we had together yesterday at Daniel and Jess's home! A special morning service, a delicious lunch, a precious afternoon being together...

From the kitchen...planning meals, grocery list.

I am wearing... pajamas-come on, you know me by now:)

I am hoping... for a week filled with sunshine!

I am hearing...a mourning dove calling in the distance, children being dropped off at the home daycare across the street.

I am praying...healing for a nerve that gives my mom pain in her face. Also for Jonathan as he starts final exams today at college.

Around the house... catching up with laundry, vacuum the stairs, refilling bird feeders.

One of my favorite things...the special relationship that little Sam has with his uncle "Jonny":)

A few plans for the rest of the week...get some things ready for a trip to GW.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...*



One of my Mother's Day blessings from my kids:)

I'm so glad you had a wonderful Mother's Day and got to enjoy little Sam's dedication! How wonderful to do it on Mother's Day. We had Mary dedicated on Mother's day 2007. It truly was a joyful occation. You mentioned hearing the mouring dove. We have them here too. When Mary hears them call she says, "An, Owl!" I laught and tell her, "No, baby that is a dove!" Your flowers are beautiful. I just love Casa Blanca lilies. They smell so sweet! Have a specal day dear friend. Hugs, Elena
