Sunday Scripture

"He will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit."Jeremiah 17:8 (NIV)

Don't Forget! Fall Y'all Bloggy Giveaway

Hey y'all! Don't forget to head on over to the "Fall Y'all!" bloggy giveaway starting October 29. That's this coming Monday.
I had an absolute blast participating in the Dog Days of Summer Giveaway back in July, and it is a great way to get extra traffic to your site . . .
Especially good timing when you want to try to make money for the appropriate coverage of the ah . . . feet of your children.
I'll be taking part again this next week, and you'll want to come check out my little twist on the idea of "giveaway".
Let's put it this way, I'm giving away more than I ever have in the past two years of blogging.
So, head on over to Shannon's and join in the fun. I guarantee you'll become slightly addicted by the end of the week. I won a lovely tea cup last time, and I smile real big every time I use it.
On His Adventure~

Ahhh . . .ctober (October)
How I've been waiting for this month.
Here are several of the reasons I am glad it is Ahhh . . . ctober:
- I wake up to temperatures that make me want to continue snuggling under a warm blanket.
- I have reason to have hot cocoa in my pantry.
- My children ask for and receive pancakes. Blueberry was the order of today.
- I wore long pants all day today and enjoyed it without even thinking of sweating.
- Which obviously leads to another favorite -- dropping the daily leg shaving. Ahhh . . .
- I have glorious views of God's hand changing the landscape at every turn.
- My girls are one day closer to their dramatic debuts as a dwarf and a goblin respectively. How exciting to be a part of "The Hobbit" cast.
- It is now getting dark before 8pm. JD Green goes to bed earlier, and I remember to take time to savor sunsets when they come before I'm too tired to enjoy them.
- One of my dearest friends whom I've not seen for three years + is coming to visit next weekend.
- Soup's on! I love making soups, and now it is starting to get cool enough to enjoy all the concoctions that get mixed up in my soup pot. I think I smell some tortilla soup on the horizon for tomorrow's dinner.
What makes this season special for you? Are you excited about the mention of "October", or does it fill you with dread? Let me know in the comments!
