How does one make a perfect day? You add the following ingredients together:
- littles scrambling to clean the house, light candles and put table cloths on all surfaces
- my favorite tea served with a long quiet time
- breakfast served in my room
- coming out to hugs and homemade cards and notes
- blue skies and sunshine and mild temps
- visit from adult children and grandbaby
- yeah, I know, beautiful
- listening to my son worship and play his new guitar
- fun family photos
- dancing with each of the men in my life
- my requested delicious lasagna dinner
- a nap with the breeze blowing on me
- a walk at a new lovely park, complete with a beautifully restored historic barn
- ‘it tastes so good it must be wrong’ molten chocolate chip cookies with chocolate oozing out and a scoop of vanilla ice cream
- a shower and favorite perfume
- sitting listening to all the beautiful evening songs from the birds
- the most amazing (but normal
) children
- this man! ( I love this picture of us!)
So many more little delights throughout the day. Amazing grace. Amazing love. I so needed a day to refocus me on the most important ‘job’ I may ever do, being a mama.
I pray you had a lovely day and that your Father gave you all YOU needed today.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely perfect day! So jealous...most of my children didn't even remember to say Happy Mother's Day so my heart bleeds. My ideal Mother's Day would look just like yours.
