five things this friday

five things 

on this friday~

rain

the weather here has turned to 

rain

and this makes it hard for me

to want to get out of bed.

i want to burrow

deeper and deeper

underneath the warmth of 

the blankets

and drift off

harvest party

our church is having

a harvest party

tomorrow night.

our daughter is meeting us there

with our two year old grandson.

it is always

wonderful to experience

a holiday with a little one-

their wonder and excitement

reminds us of how 

good life really is!

loss

two friends of mine

are experiencing loss this week

of their fathers.

both were christian men

so we know without a doubt

that our loss is heaven's gain

but, still

my thoughts and prayers 

are with these two families

as they struggle through

their sorrow and grief

glow

the glow from

our fireplace-

so warm and cozy.

 sitting and basking in front of 

the glow-

my laptop

or book 

and just relax

and soak it all in.

shine

sometimes it is hard

to shine our light,

to smile and be kind

 these quotes

i will leave you with

this friday;

"thousands of candles can be lit

from a single candle,

and the life of the candle

will not be shortened.

happiness never decreases by

being shared. "
