.:Family memories:.

 Good, significant memories don't just happen most of the time. They are created.

Making family memories is one of the thing we need to remember.  It doesn't need to be expensive, it doesn't need to be something grand.  Sometimes, the very simple things turns out to be very special when we put a little extra care in it.
Some of our favorite memories...
Reading a book together while enjoying herbal tea in fancy cups
Candlelight supper
A walk in the woods
An evening at the cabin playing games with a fire in the wood stove
Sunday drives
Singing together
Cooking together
Making home made popcorn 

.:A little place:.

Where shall I work today dear Lord?
And my love flow warm and free.
He answered and said,
See that little place?  Tend that place for Me.

I've found those words written in my diary this afternoon.  I can't remember where I got them from but every time I read it, my heart gets warm. 
How blessed I am to have found this place in the world.  A place where I know God wants me to be, a place where I feel safe and secure, a place I can call home.
My dear husband is there, my sweet children are there, they need me and I need them.
God want's me to take care of this place, he want's me to love and take care of them that are in that house.  He wants me to be occupied with the things of the house and this is what I want to do with a happy heart. 
I have to confess that my heart is not always happy, I have to confess that sometimes, I complain and get selfish.  Sometimes, it gets though, but deep down, I always know that when I feel that way, it's because my heart is not right with God.  My heart looks at something else. 
I have come to learn that when I am content with what I have, my heart becomes lighter and it's much easier to accept my work with a happy heart.

God bless you all dear stay at home moms for your work is noble and pure.

Guide older women into lives of reverence so they end up as neither gossips nor drunks, but models of goodness. By looking at them, the younger women will know how to love their husbands and children, be virtuous and pure, keep a good house, be good wives.
Titus 2:4

.:Spring:.

Spring!  This is what this picture reminds me of.
Every year, the first thing to come out of our garden is chive and Awwwh... how I am happy when I see the first signs of it!
I just love this season, and summer, and the sun, and the birds singing...
Winter can be very long here in this far away Canadian land.
Soon, there will be signs of Spring everywhere.
Rejoice my friend, rejoice!

 Ask the LORD for rain in the springtime; it is the LORD who makes the storm clouds. He gives showers of rain to men, and plants of the field to everyone.
Zechariah 10:1

.:You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God:.

::My name is Nancy
This blog will be my random thoughts about anything that makes me happy.
I've always love to write.  I've always love to put my thoughts on paper.  It makes me feel like if I am talking to someone.  This someone will be you.
For a while now, my heart has long for something.  Something I can sometimes experience and it feels so good, so precious. 
This blessing is a meek and quiet spirit.
Oh!  And how my character is far from being meek.  How it's far from being quiet!  But, the deepest desire of my heart is to be a women with a meek and quiet heart and, by the grace of God, I pray that he might help me to do what he have ask from me which is...
To have a meek and quiet spirit.

Have a happy day :-)
