I have been in full-blown “Christmas shopping” mode recently! Check out this adorable gift I found yesterday for a very special little 1-yr. old! This brings me so much joy!

Thank you God for the special people in our life you have given us to love!

This little snail was inching its way across our front porch this morning when hubby left to go to work. Check out the water droplets beaded up on its shell. And check out its 4 antennae helping it navigate its way along.

Thank you God for the joy found in the little things!



This morning my son sent this photo. Whoa! That’s a crawdad! I’ve never seen a crawdad before! That is so cool! My son said that these little guys were crossing the street in droves yesterday … and that after the big thunderstorm which came through on Saturday they seem to be everywhere! What a totally cool little creature!

Thank you God for the joy found in the little things!



My “repeat song” I’ve been listening to today, all day long on repeat is:
All Creatures (Sing the Harmony) [Live] | Shane & Shane – YouTube

Thank you God for the joy found in the little things!
