I was greeted early this morning with Sweet William snuggles. This is a simple pleasure that I know is fleeting all too quickly. Lots of "Mama, Mama!" Lots of wet kisses. Lots of pudgy hugs.
Then it was time for one of my dearest Sabbath pleasures...walking to church. Two of my boys grabbed each other's hands and ran as fast as they could for the 1/3 mile to church.
And me? I just strolled. Enjoying the sights, the passing friends in their cars, and the privilege to begin my time of worship as a walk...to pause, to thank, to praise.Lord, thank you for a quiet Sabbath.
For blessed children.
For beautiful creation.
For bountiful care.

Your first two pictures didn't show up. How wonderful to be able to walk to your church. I bet that is a wonderful part of your Sunday rituals.
We love walking to church as well. :) A wonderful blessing in this day and age where it seems like you can't get very many places without driving!
I love picturing ya'll walking to church. . .that was always a fun thing about going to church with you. . .seeing your family walking as we passed you on our way there, and hearing my kids exclaim, "There's Sam and Katie and John. . .!!"
