I saw that your husband is home (I know, it's been awhile now...), and that the two of you are doing some bible study together. My two cents? That's awesome! I actually watched his homecoming video on your site - of course, crying happy tears... With Sierra, I've been learning to celebrate baby steps - it doesn't really feel so much like slowing down, but like the photograph at the top of the post...'cropping down' so that I can be sure I don't miss those important details. I hope that makes sense. It's really good to see you here, thanks for your encouraging words. Hugs to you and your family.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07263629738556756592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7217726456450158516.post-27730621384979015012015-06-25T10:17:39.622-04:002015-06-25T10:17:39.622-04:00I really appreciate you sharing this.

It is kind of funny that I wrote something similar to this today- about slowing down ♥Summerhttp://www.summervernal.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7217726456450158516.post-34944887196338801492015-06-25T06:42:00.355-04:002015-06-25T06:42:00.355-04:00Janet, I noticed you were writing again but hadn&#...Janet, I noticed you were writing again but hadn't had a chance to stop by but it's so good to be here this morning reading your words. I actually just watched a video by Shauna Niequist that spoke about slowing down to be more present. Seemed appropriate that I would read your words immediately following . . . as another example of how busyness doesn't equate to meaningful. Praising God with you for the ways He walks with you and your daughter; for the ways He walks with all of us.

Even when life hits hard, though, I find I can praise God for being God - He IS - after all!

It warms my heart, though, to know that she can bless others as well. Oh, I have coffee needs, too, but that's WAY before the breakfast autopilot! That's the, as Sierra would say, "I'm-not-awake-yet" thing. More like sleepwalking than autopilot - and I used to think I was a morning person!

Especially while still on "autopilot." (Mine is a coffee need.) I'm enjoying reading about your daughter. She sounds like a wonderful blessing! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
