Simple Woman's Daybook

Outside my window...There was a little chipmunk sitting on our front step. I wish I had my camera on hand so I could take a picture. One thing that I love about where we live, is the animals we see around our yard. Wild Turkey's, Deer, Rabbits, Squirrels, Snakes, Chipmunks, Cats, Racoons and sometimes little Moles. But my favorite are the birds. Their colors are so vibrant and they make little nests right in your window sill. 

I am thinking...That it was a good choice to put Abigail back into homeschool. She started her Video Streaming with A Beka today, and just listening to the Bible story reminded me how important it is for her to have this every morning. In a way it is her own devotion time.

I am thankful...For God's Holy and Perfect Word. There are times, many times when I don't know which way is up or down and that is when God speaks to me through His perfect Word. 


From the Reading room... I am doing a Independent Beth Moore Bible study. It is called Jesus, 90 Days with the One and Only. 

In the kitchen... Left over egg and bacon omelets sit on the counter. I ran out of nice smelling candles to burn so I have a spiced mandarin orange oil burning.


 I am wearing.. Navy blue with Lime green sweats from Aero


I am creating...A mess really. I mean, in my room I have just thrown my clothes on the floor. and Then as I clean and organize the garage, things get brought into the house and so now I have random things lying around. But of course instead of taking care of it, I am on here blogging about it :D

I am wondering...What I should make for lunch today. I tend to cook according to my mood and the weather outside (which is quite nice right now)

I am craving... Nothing really. Which makes cooking hard for me at times.

I am hoping...That my brother can watch the kids tonight so My husband and I can go shopping for Christmas presents.


I am looking forward to... This season in my life being over. There are some seasons that you want to hold on to and treasure every waking moment. Some you would rather skip all together. This season is filled with a lot of hurt. A lot of struggles and though I know I need to wait things out and endure with the strength and patience of God, I would rather just fast forward through it.

I am hearing.. Pandora. Awesome is the Lord Most High sung by Passion. I have realized that though I may be going through a rough season, I can at least have great and uplifting music as the background music.


Around the house... My littlest just woke up from her nap. Her big brother greets her with "You woked up Ellie Bears"? 



One of my favorite things.. Is seeing my kids love each other. I love the affection shown between the oldest and the youngest. Abigail is great at putting Ellie down for a nap. Joey is great at greeting them with smiles and love and Ellie brings energy and sometimes frustration to the others. But there is always an abundant amount of love.


A few plans for the rest of the week: This friday Miguel is going to get all 4  wisdom teeth pulled

Here is picture for thought I am sharing.. How can this face  not make you smile :D
