This day has had Grace written all over it. I woke up after not-quite-enough-sleep, but had my tea anyway with Pugs in my lap. Had prayed/read the Morning Office in bed, so just relaxed in the living room. The girls had already had their tea.
Tidied the kitchen, did a load of wash and sat down the the kids to go over their schoolwork. And there was a Joy in the room. Truth is, our youngest son has been so unpredictable lately, it's been difficult to know what mood he'd be in on a daily basis. He and I had a bit of a run-in the other night, and I guess we reached an understanding, because ever since, he's been much more peaceful. And more talkative. Not sure quite what clicked with us, but feel so thankful.
And Woodboy's shop has had consistent work for weeks and weeks. Since August. The bills are caught up for the first time in ages.
There are some groceries in the cupboards.
Also, there's a prayer service tomorrow night before dinner. With incense. Delicious. But I've already mentioned that. Bears repeating, though, to my mind.
I feel so blessed. And don't take a minute of it for granted.
One more thing, am listening to Danny Gokey's newest CD on Spotify called Hope in Front of Me. Good stuff.
Yes, Grace.
