It's been a crazy-busy couple of weeks and while I've been frequently overwhelmed with gratitude, I haven't been consistent with recording gifts...
Here's an attempt to reconcile that and get back on track...
Here's an attempt to reconcile that and get back on track...
I'm thankful for so many things...
...promises, plans
...my family, growing
...my son, grown (!)
...sweet Maranda
...crops, growing, green
...the comfort of Jesse's nearness
...talking with Jessica about everything
...unexpected affirmation, so encouraging
...the challenge of study, questioning
...the unmistakable power of a thunderstorm
...the mystery of the garden
When we planted these sweet, green peas, the seed packet said they needed some type of trellis to climb. Jesse, ever the problem-solver, decided to plant the seeds at the base of the corn stalks left from last year's crop...
...and it's working. They are growing, thriving. The mystery to me is that these plants, knowing they need the support, send delicate tendrils...reaching, curling, holding...
...everything in creation knows we need something to hold on to in this crazy world...what a beautiful thing...
