boy love asked for a bunk bed (apparently they're contagious :)
my I do said the project would be a joy- and it is ( :
the bed is framed, the other pieces are cut, sanded, and stained
mostly the work of the Daddy, but with a little help from the rest of us
the time together in this project has been priceless, from the smiles to the conversation

I am ever thankful for His love. His grace. His peace.
and the way the Holy Spirit seemingly breathes unity,
the way the Holy Spirit calms and soothes me as I face circumstances where I am unsure.
that I can trust Him. that there is Hope in the waiting.
that He has answered in other areas, and as always His answers are beautiful. He is beautiful.
friends, may The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26
joyfully joining Ann and the community of thankful counters
Oh, what joy!!! I love it all.
ReplyDeleteI am drawing a blank on what baby-bel is? I love, love all the pics of this family that I love so much. My, what is happening to our girl!? Can it be she has grown that much in just a few short months?
Pray-tell, what are the creatures you received in the mail?
I love your mom's idea for stay-at-home-black-friday rolls. LOVE it! They look so yummy. It would have been fun to have stayed at home together and enjoyed those rolls with some coffee, yes?
I can't wait to see the bed when it is finished. Thank you so much for getting back to this place and posting all of this. Along with our conversation earlier, it made my day!
Oh, I like your point and shoot. You do good stuff with it, girl!
Love you,
