For some time now I’ve been wanting to jot down some of the things in my daily life that bring me joy or make me smile.

I LOVE this blog I discovered a few weeks ago, and found a section in the author’s archives that was interesting to me called “Collecting Satisfactions”. Read about it here.

Tonight my babies snuggled up to me while I sing one of our favorite night time hymns, Now Rest Beneath Nights Shadow. I wished it had been a longer song!
