Oh Goody…

Share five things you’re good at.

I love sharing! This is a wonderful opportunity to share in five different ways…

I know that I can bake, so I’ll share some cookies with you.

I hope I’m good at being a writer, trying to share my imagination…

Each day, I seek to encourage you with something or other…

I’ve boatloads of love to offer…

Having listed those four things with you, I realize that I’ve only one thing left to share. This one may be at the end of the list but is far from the least of what I would strive to give you…

I pray!

I pray for your hearts, your health, and your happiness! I pray for your dreams, your desires, and your destination! I pray that you love deeply, laugh heartily, and live to the fullest!

Prayer goes farther than any other earthly good talent I’ve got, so there’s that…

Here, have a cookie…

Tuesday’s To-Do List…

With all the snowfall in the barnyard recently, Miss Tilly has me shoveling out the future parking pad for Santa’s sleigh…

Already!!!

Honestly, she’s a bit pushy if you ask me. 

Right now, as we speak, she’s got all the babes locked in the barn with her…

She’s refusing to let them out to play until after all their Santa letters have been completed and are ready for mailing!

Oh well!  At least it’ll all get done, right?!

I’m just glad she’s keeping everyone occupied while I freeze my toes off, making these frozen parking cubes…

Finally! A Holiday Prompt…

What is one thing you would change about yourself?

While I don’t actually have an elf, I do happen to know a few. 

The big thing up at the pole this year is fashion for the young Elflet’s! 

It so happens that I read about this very thing while reading Tilly’s invitation from Santa last week.

The theme floating around the workshop has been labeled “Functional Fashion,” according to Santa.

Tilly, herself, will be traveling to the pole two full days ahead of Christmas Eve, just for all the finishing work needed on her own new dress, coat, and sleigh harness.

We,re all so excited!

Don’t worry, I’ll be taking lots of pictures that I will then share with you.

For now, a cookie will have to do…

Misty Morning…

Today’s weather forecast calls for reading 📚 resting 😴 and recovering from all the gobbling we’ve all been doing! 

Isn’t it strange that we gobbled up the bird known for gobbling… what a hoot!  No, I wasn’t referring to an owl, by the way.

Turkey = Gobble

Owl = Whoo (not hoot)

Smile, it’s Sunday!

Windows and Doors…

My two favorite things to wear, you ask?

My eyes and my mouth, of course!

The eyes are the windows to one’s soul… so I’ve been told.

If the eyes are the windows, then the lips are like the doorway!

A gentle smile, tender words of love, and heartfelt spoken truths… good fruit can be produced if the mouth is used properly.

The beanies… well, no matter how much i love wearing them, they have to stay behind. 

It’s no bother, really, because God made me a brand new one…

and it’s far more precious than what I’ve been wearing!

Have a cookie…

Comfort…

OOh OOh, I Know This One…

Name your top three pet peeves.

Take a moment, if you please

To meet my three favorite pet peeves…

The first is Bettina,

the stubborn little Rhino…

To everything that I tell her, she has to say “I Know!”

Then comes little Auzzie, an owl who refuses to fly,

Busily baking cookies,

only dreaming of reaching the sky!

Last but not least,

meet a bird whose quite cheeky…

Nanny clucks at all the others,

while still wearing egg on her own beaky!

These peeves you see, are my favorite’s three,

because these peeves,

are all pieces of me…

For better and for worse,

we must finish what we start,

I shall tend to all these scars,

as God does the mending of my heart!

Cookies, anyone?
