A Monday of small wins

"Do not despise these small beginnings." - Zechariah 4:10

Mondays can feel like an abrupt beginning after a restful weekend, but today held a surprising number of small wins. Working from home as a Learning Manager means my Mondays are full of planning, meetings, catching up, and moving projects forward. However, I've learned to look for the tiniest of victories. This one action helps to make my day feel lighter and go faster. 

  • a smooth morning routine
  • a productive meeting
  • a sweet message from Mackenzie excited about her upcoming travel agent training
  • my sweet Turtle showing me a new Caitlin Clark clip she loved
  • Even a quick check-in with Angel and Chris before they start their day in Wisconsin

All of the above add just a touch of brightness and blessing to my day. These may seem like things to overlook, but I count them as small wins. They are the building blocks of gratitude. When I take the time to slow down and notice them, I realize how much God is doing in the background. It is a gentle reminder that He is in the details of our lives no matter how tiny those details may be. 

What is one small win you can celebrate from today?

School is OUT!!!

Today was bittersweet for me.  I am happy its summer break, but that means we only have 2 years before we have a MIDDLESCHOOLER!  I cant believe we are that close already!  Both girls had a great day.  I got soaked walking to get Madispn, then the rain slacked off enough for me to have buckets of sweat rolling into my eyes!  It has been so humid here that i sweat as soon as i go outside let alone walk the more than 1/2 mile to her school.  We are starting a new walking track tomorrow... not sure how far but its gonna be fun to see

sad but true

Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore Because the word "God" is mentioned...... A kid in Arizona wrote the attached NEW School prayer: Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd. If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights. And anytime my head I bow Becomes a Federal matter now. Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene. The law is specific, the law is precise. Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all. In silence alone we must meditate, God's name is prohibited by the state. We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks. They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. To quote the Good Book makes me liable. We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,...
