Just a Moment

Rain is falling. Dinner is ready. School is finished. Silas draws quietly at the kitchen table. The older three gather around the computer to watch a game of solitaire.

We are all at home.

We are all safe.

The rain falls softly.

The breezes are cool.

A moment to take a breath.

A moment to give thanks.

Happy Birthday, dear Cheryl,
Happy Birthday to you! (cha cha cha)

(That's Texas kid style, by the way!)

I hope it was a great day for you!

Birthday, huh!

My prayer for you and your family today is today, tomorrow, and Wednesday's entry on my blog. It is an ancient prayer from St. Francis:

Much love to you guys!

I just looked up your blog, to read your latest post, and Jotham saw your picture and said "jeryl". Translation= "Cheryl". I asked what he said and he said it again- I hope he will say it when you see him next - its really cute :)

The moment I spent here refreshed me. I caught a glimpse of Him too.

Thank you, Cheryl.

All's grace,
Ann
