– A few days over spring break just at home, with no real agenda, lazy mornings and slow evenings with very few responsibilities.
– Getting to read in the mornings with Essie right next to me, a book on her lap as well.These are just things that simply don\’t happen during normal weeks.
– Coffee with Jessica C ~ sweet time with a sweet woman. I admire her transparency and deep love for you, Lord. And the way you orchestrated our convo with Nick ~ crazy. You are indeed in the details.
– Baseball tournaments rained out (with gorgeous weather over the weekend). Boo. Practicing thankfulness in all things.
– TCU v. BU baseball game Friday night ~ we were a bit out of place in our green and gold, and Baylor lost 3-1. Could have been much worse, however, and it was a fun evening with Branson and Hudson with a Fuzzy\’s dinner afterwards.
– Girls getting sleepovers at both Mama and Papa\’s, and Cappy and Daboo\’s.
– Hair cuts! Free and convenient – and good!
– A date with Corbin at Blue Mesa, we both love that place. So nice to get away to a quiet dinner amidst our home filled with kids all week.
– A Spring Break sleepover
– A quiet Saturday morning – don\’t quite know what to do with ourselves!
– Cinderella with the Sanders girls – great outing, great friends, great film. Lily James is just so stinking fun to watch on screen.
– Watching Bran and Hud have fun together.
– Papa taking Bran and his friends fishing several times last week. Sweet investment.
– Finding Essie\’s pics on my phone.
– A drive to 7R for a cancelled horse lesson. Again, thankful for all things. Really hate seeing Basden disappointed, but the Lord knows, and He will use it.
– That we still enjoy the park behind our home.
– Watching Hud run at his first track meet ~ wowzers. He\’s not just a fast runner, he\’s a determined runner!
– Daboo helping Es with homework
– The mullet – Frederick – is GONE. Praise God. At Bran\’s request.

| How many brilliant business men are up at midnight (after a late-night track meet) cutting hair??! This one! |
– Encouraging words from friends.
– Elvia!
 |
| Her hard work blesses us so tremendously |
– Our Tanglewood / McLean Moms in Prayer group, and Paschal Praying Moms. When I feel out of control in parenting (and I am – so often – cannot control things), I know the Lord is. Praying with these SCHOOL moms makes all the difference in our weeks. And seeing answered prayers for other students and teachers is so incredibly encouraging.
– This – tomorrow night – curious and excited to see what the Lord has in store through Bran and his friends \”gathering\” for a night of worship (?!)
Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles… 1 Chronicles 16:11-12
