Cozy fall clothes and leaves

October has already come and gone today. The forecast says snow for tomorrow and my thoughts this weekend went to cozy clothes and a warm fireplace. (Which thanks to Joel is now clean and ready for a fire. He really was a Chimney sweep for the harvest party!) My "Little men" enjoyed some nice fall weather and played outside yesterday. I loved hearing Kadence squeal as he jumped in the pile of leaves.

"Now's the time when children's noses
All become as red as roses,
And the colour of their faces
Makes me think of orchard places
Where the juicy apples grow,
And tomatoes in a row."
- Katherine Mansfield, 'Autumn Song'

Thank you Lord for healthy boys...they make all those simple moments so special.

My earthy dearest~~~~~~

“When I have learnt
to love GOD
better than my earthly
dearest,
I shall love my earthly dearest
better than I do now.”
—C.S. Lewis
