Hud’s heavy tests and finals week, that you are WITH him
A cool, rainy day at home. Goodness gracious
We love, because he first loved us.
1 Jn 4:19 – “The Bible teaches that genuine love in my heart for God is generated by an awareness of his love for me.” – GP
Mama and Papa HERE
Rainy walk with the pups

Ecc 4-6 – When God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work – this is a gift of God. He seldom reflects on the days of his life, because God keeps him occupied with the gladness of heart.

Cleaning BOTH ice makers (with Papa’s help and encouragement), and now the one outside is working!

Cam’s gracious responses… both times. How that has encouraged me.
Corbin meeting his parents for lunch today, and not even including me. On purpose. So I could be home alone and not have to leave. He also took Essie to school this morning for me.
Rangers Game with Ken and Lori ~ all you can eat restaurant, parking pass, snacks – first time to see the new stadium. So uplifting to be with good friends
Bran’s facetime calls
Hud taking time to show the Schierlohs around Auburn and taking Mattie to play pickle ball with his friends – SO PRECIOUS and love that so much
Mark, Sarah and Luke here
Harley and Jessie. What a privilege, Father. Please protect them.
Truth put so simply

In the stands with Daboo. This Dallas game was almost too cold to bear

Reading about real joy this morn
Things that make me miss Hudda
A full day ahead, that I can count on you, Lord, for peace and joy. and energy, even when I don\’t feel it
Watching this one compete
Quiet Friday
SO, so so true, Lord, help me to remember that YOU are my refuge. Not my physical home, not my schedule or taking time to rest, but YOU.
Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles… 1 Chronicles 16:11-12
