simple daybook

Ariella's first time feeding a Kangaroo



Outside my window

It's dark and quiet - perfect for sleeping :)

I'm listening to

'Everything is Yours' by Audrey Assad (the whole album actually)

I'm wearing

My favourite black denim skirt, pink ruffled top and black cardi

patting the snake at Potoroo Palace


I'm so grateful for

~ going out after church with friends
~ a successful first day of Year 1 for Josh
~ that my children have a granddad who loves to spend time with them - Malakai helped granddad with chainsawing today :)
~ fun times with some 'younger' friends over this afternoon - how can it be that I don't feel anywhere 10-15 (!) years older than them?
~ God's grace...more than enough for me (and oh, how much I need it)
~ this quilting book on special - Simplify - so I bought it ;) (but not from this website lol)
I find I could go on and on...and on...

Peacock showing off at Potoroo Palace

I'm pondering

~ all that I'm reading in Feminine Appeal
~ my 'word/theme' for the year. Last year I felt like I was possibly off the mark with my word - delight. But as I look back on 2010, I can see that it was perfect. In a number of ways, but most importantly in the delight I found in God's word like I never had before. This year I can't get away from eternity, having an eternal perspective and being kingdom minded. I'm excited about it :)
~ health and weight loss!!

I'm reading

My bible in a year
Feminine Appeal

Also getting into these a little at a time
~ How to Make Brothers and Sisters Best Friends
~ Heaven at Home
~ Power Thoughts
~ the ACT bridging document for the new Australian Curriculum

and still waiting (not so) patiently for my One Thousand Gifts to arrive ;)

I'm thinking

about my desperate need for motivation and self-discipline

I am creating

Nothing - in a bit of a stalemate with that at the moment. Need to get organised :( and hopefully inspired when 'Simplify' comes in the mail.

On my ipod

Some seriously awesome genius mixes - love that feature

I am praying

that God's will be done and His kingdom will come in my life, and in the lives of those I love

Around the house

There is mess! And LOTS of laundry. Feeling a little overwhelmed by laundry!

Some plans for this week

'Tea and tissues' with the new kindy parents tomorrow :) that was me last year!!
A girly outing with Ella (unless a baby comes?)
Starting with my new class - I'm so excited!
