He drives away in the Jeep that once was his dad's great love. While in Israel it somehow fell into his hands and Dad never took it back. So one child took the Suburban that Dad loved and one took his Jeep. He said it's a weird feeling watching both your vehicles drive off and they aren't yours anymore.

Blessed to have two of my three children with me on Mother's Day 2011.  I never thought I would be the only female in the house...just never thought about it.
I'm convinced there are great rewards to a woman who lives in a house with only men. Proud of my kiddos.

Have I mentioned lately how blessed I am?  One such night was this one....I quietly listened to the conversations of my son and two friends as they cooked steaks, listened to country music and just hung out. Once the food was done I heard them offer thanks to the Father for their meal. No adults to remind them to pray at dinner, they just did.  : )

{{ 95}} Travel

Part of me wants to go somewhere....I feel the itch to do something adventurous and fun. A year ago the boys and I should have been joining R. in Israel as missionaries. The door closed and here I sit. It's hard to just be......

I marvel at the intricasies of nest building. When my daughter was doing a project in high school we found abandoned nests. Our collection was quite unique. No two are alike...just like us...carefully woven by our Maker. What appears to be junk on the outside is now part of the plan...it's used, not wasted.

The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.”

{{ 92 }} Chosen

I like the word "Chosen". 

It makes me feel safe, secure

sought after, protected.

 It makes me feel like it's not too late for dreams.

a collage print for them.

Really, I just played.
