two ponderings

december 3, 2011
girls will be 13 on epiphany 2012.  crazy stuff!
putting old ornaments on the new tree we got today from tree wisemans.
pondering past purchases….like the two years it took to find the one with a saint bernard.
sparkling cider.
fire in the osburn.
cold winter lager in the stein.
warmth in my heart.
oh, the amazing memories.  good ones.  icky ones, too.
culminating in today.
my God. You are the only, most immeasurable joy that this world has or ever will know.
new macs and idiot box.  yep, we’re sync’d.
focus factor & vitamin d doing their job.
wickhams christmases surround sounding me.
hmmm:)   music.  my bones dance.
my soul is at peace.  praise You: Savior, Covenant God, Lord of all…..of me.

grace and mercy and bundles of joy throughout
silliness in twinsisterhoodness
growing. growing. gone

fast now new ones, different every step
we travel
the Lord is in His holy temple and Jesus is our guide
my soul is at rest.  praise You: Sustainer, Sovereign God, Lord of all……of me.
