It was almost 100 degrees outside and the sun gleamed in a brilliant blue sky. So off we went, while Kai was at camp, to the beach. The older two boys swam gleefully as I read Bread and Wine and dreamed of delicious meals to make my sun-kissed family for dinner. At one point I looked up and snapped this photo of my view.

This is great, Misty! I definitely need to focus on organizing more intentionally these days as we are back and forth between two homes due to my dh's work. This series should really help me! Thanks! Look forward d to getting to know you over at the Bibe Study, too!
ReplyDeleteI love how you talk about the corners of stuff that bother you but will just stay that way unless you do something about it. Seeing your list and plan in action, I will be getting on-board soon! Love the word REVELATIONS even more than intentions!
ReplyDeleteI've put this off long enough! Printing the list tonight. Better late than never! :)
ReplyDeleteOh man! I'm just trying to find a pen that works! ;)
