The Simple Things

With all the endless chores I or any Mom/ Caregiver has to do 24 hours a day 7 days a week, we have little time to do anything "Enjoyable".
Therefore we treasure every moment that's filled with Joy.

I find, more now than ever before,  how much I truly enjoy the simple things.

My favorite times of the day are early morning, before anyone else is awake, when I sit quietly, sipping on a cup of coffee or tea, reading devotionals.  Spending Time with The Lord.
This brings me Joy.

And at night, after everything is done, everyone is tucked in and I can sit in my little bed working on crafts for my class of 2 & 3 year olds for the upcoming Sunday Morning.
This Brings me Joy.

Spending a few moments sitting down to lunch with Trammell as we watch a recorded episode of "Restaurant Impossible". (Although sometimes it takes us two days to watch one episode)
This Brings me Joy.

Spending time with David, helping him with Art Time and seeing his face when we finish his craft.  Seeing his eyes light up with childlike excitement.
This Brings me Joy.

What Brings Joy To Your Heart?

Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
