Simple things

Happy Tuesday!

It's finally summer, yeah!  Three out of the four of our kids are in vacation bible school this week and so the house is a bit quiet.  It is a nice reprieve for me and it also gives me a lot of one on one time with the baby.  I actually have to fight for time with her because her sisters like to whisk her away and play so much. 

Today I was thumbing through my bible and found a paper with some good quotes on it.
This is from Robert Lewis Stevenson
"Make up your mind to be happy.  Learn to find pleasure in simple things."

Oh how often we forget the simple things. 
The smell of freshly laundered towels.
Little arms from a little child around your neck.
Chocolate chips.
Chicken's pecking in speckled sunshine.
