It IS the little things...

...that bring me joy and help with the BIG troubles of life. I am so thankful for the tiny blessings that mean so much in this complicated soup of living here on earth, our temporary home. 

It is my baby's babble. 

It is a thunder storm on a hot day. 

It is a tiny outpouring of creativity. With glitter. 

It is the blessing of a husband asking "would you like to paint the porch?" 

Yes, please!

It is smiling every time I step on that porch and think of my husband's thoughtfulness there. 

The little things are big stuff. 

It's not for lack of life...

But more for the abundance of it. Life and all the complicated, beautiful mess that goes with it has slowed my blogging. I don't have it in me to delve deep, but I thought I would post some random pictures from the last couple months, just for fun. 

Silly sisters with balloons...

What's for dinner?

A sewing lesson with Grandma...

The new walker stance...

Blurry dancing sisters...

Playing with a truck from Daddy's childhood...

My first batch of homemade sour kraut...

Wearing veils from thei Aunty...

An impromptu picnic...

Easter morning fun...

Empty tomb cookies...

A date by the new fire pit...

So glad warm weather is in the works...

Have a lovely evening, y'all.
