When life feels overly complicated, it’s time to go out and just enjoy what God has given you. Look past the un-mowed pastures and watch monster dogs lurking in the pond. Get the hummingbird feeders out and settle into a good garden chair. Put aside the need for perfection or obsessing on a To Do List, and make a Gratitude List instead. This week I am grateful for fresh eggs, hummingbirds, the blessings of family relationships and my stepdad’s 92nd birthday, and the exceptional flavor of early salad greens from the garden (new fav recipe here).
