today and waves.

 today was an amazing day.

mostly the first half.

it was warm out, we walked preslee to school as a family, and tilled the garden.

i just wanted to freeze time.

notice jonah's shoes...he prefers to wear one of each color. boy's got style.

 

i think life is kind of like being in the waves of the ocean.

most times you don't easily ride.

you fight,

you paddle like no other to keep from getting swallowed up.

you work really hard to keep your head above the water,

and at the end of each wave you are tired and worn,

sick of swimming.

but then sometimes God sends the perfect wave,

the kind you can ride.

your body and soul relax, and you ride effortlessly for a moment.

and while your riding that wave you look around and think,

all is well.

today i had an all is well day.

i rode that wave like a pony.

 i love being outside with my family,

in the yard,

the kids frolicking, dirty, and giggly.

it's my happy place.

 we are going to plant

tomatoes (we've started the plants in our bedroom window sill), peppers, pumpkins, zuccini, yellow squash, strawberries, carrots, and we'll see what else:)

 even marshballs marshmallow was filling up my heart today:)



 all is well:)
