Reality Check......


..... so I talk a lot about "stuff" on this blog..... things I want or adore; pretty things to wear or to decorate my home.... but the "thing" I'm longing most for in life looks more like this......


...... growing old in the company of my husband;
the warmth of a small hand tucked in mine;
sharing a glass of wine with a girlfriend;
offering a smile to a stranger on the street;
savoring the taste of a freshly baked croissant;
a familiar voice on the other end of the line;
the sound of chatter around the dinner table;
the wind mussing up my hair;
feeling the belly ache after a good laugh;
the rush of trying something new.......

.......summed up.... experiencing God's love.

I never want to lose sight of the goodness that money can never buy.

signing off for the weekend folks.... have a great one!
