(posted in order, as taken)


"Oh, hi Momma!"


"Do you want some?"


"Well that's fine. More for me!"


"Momma, there's no milk in my hands!"


"So I'll do a little dance instead."


"Why aren't you dancing?"


"It's really fun!"


"Okay, you see how, now?"


"But I'm a little tired..."


"So I'll just clap my hands."


"Um, whoa. Where am I?"


Shimmy. shimmy...


"Momma, you're super pretty..."


"Could I maybe have some milk now?"


"Please?"


"PLEASE!!!??"


"Oh, the agony..."


"I'm asking SO nicely!"


The binky intervention:


"Now I'm really sleepy."


"Thanks, Momma."


"I'm back on top, baby!"


*Note* The Little Mister did get his milk immediately following this. :)

Adding to the Beauty

"I want to add to the beauty, I want to tell a better story." If you haven't heard that song by Sara Groves, you need to go listen to it. Now.

Hmm. where do you start after an almost 2-year blogging hiatus? Here are a few things you've missed (unless, of course, you know me in real life!)

My cup overflows.

The Mister and I were blessed with a Little Mister a couple of months ago, and we've experienced so much of God's providence and beauty through being parents. Wow. Understatement of the year!

I want this to be a space where you and I are encouraged to remember. Remember grace, remember beauty, remember God's redemption story, remember how we are actually included in it. And also to share in the details of the good life: the meal-sharing, the home-making, the song-singing.

"And this is grace: an invitation to be beautiful....Redemption comes in strange places, small spaces, calling out the best of who we are."

Let's add to the beauty together,

Sarah Marie

in celebration of the new month...

...this little winged creature decided to light upon a red bloom, right in time for me to giggle and snap a shot.
Also, for your information, I've decided that autumn actually began about 2 weeks ago. Just because. Have a lovely first week of September. Oh... I know I will.

daisy, daisy...

Hi, folks. I know, I know. It's been too long. I started working full-time again at the preschool... so I've adjusted the way I spend precious time accordingly. I'm confident I'll be able to carve out some now and again for blogging once I make the transition...

Miss Daisy and I just wanted to offer a happy 'hello' from the front garden. So, hello there! And... goodbye. I'm sure we'll chat again soon.

for all those who love coffee and a good deal

My husband alerted me to this sweet fact:
