FOR TODAY

Outside my Window... I see a dark sky, grass and garden heavy with dew and the beginnings of a drizzling rain.

I am thinking... that God is in control. Let go- Let God.

I am thankful for... that God can. He very simply can and He will.

From the kitchen... honey oatmeal bread is baking, the ingredients for supper are sitting on the counter. Leftover Red, White and Blue breakfast cake sits in a stoneware pan on the stove- ready for any snacky feelin’ fingers.

I am creating...menu plans, library lists and school schedules.

I am going...to our little library soon with the kiddos- our only planned trip for the day [we’ve switched errand day to tomorrow].

I am wearing... blue jean capris, a silly blue t-shirt with a big grinning fish on it and the words “God is Good” under it. My hair is up in a pony tail and my small, silver Celtic Cross necklace is around my neck- my prayer reminder for today.

I am reading... The Island of Heavenly Daze series (book 3) by Lori Copeland & Angela Hunt, the new No Greater Joy Magazine,  and perhaps I’ll pick up something else at the library.

I am hoping... for a good day.

I am hearing... water dripping off the eaves, Mr. Conductor playing a train game, my girls working on their math, the hum of the computer.

Around the house... we are still putting odds and ends away from our holiday weekend. We plan to have the house “set to rights” by this afternoon.

 

One of my favorite things... hugs and kisses from my kidlets.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week... finish writing syllabus for creative writing class I’ll be teaching this fall, make list of any items still needed for school this fall, update family calendar, finish 3 weeks of meal plans.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you... Maiden with sparklers.

I am reading the Heavenly Daze Series also. I kind of started in the middle but that's ok. I love them so far. I am so thankful every day that there is good Christian Fiction out there, a wide variety of genres that we can enjoy without worrying about having to shut the book 1/4 of the way into it because of bad language, or sleaze.

I read that series and enjoyed it. I like clean Christian fiction, too. I even write some!

I love hugs and kisses from the children, too. I have major decluttering to do before we start school again in September. I haven't done much so far, but I hope to get a few more things done next week.

The Wagner Clan

My Husband (DH)-
Mr. Steady

My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.

DD11- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.

DD8- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added spice of flavor to our family.

DS4- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He likes to think he's in charge and often is! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
