Prince of Peace.

First Snow
Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter, Bonnie. She brings me so much joy. My first snow day of the year! I work at a Montessori school and we are getting our first big snow storm of the year so.... SNOW DAY!! I made my own hummus last weekend. It was delicious. I added a little bit of turmeric along with the chickpeas, lemon, tahini, and garlic. I plan on eating a more plant based diet this year. It's only been a week and I'm already feeling better. I did eat two slices of mushroom pizza last night and ended up having heartburn so it will be a good long time before I eat dairy again. Each month one of our families brings in a bouquet of flowers. We cut most of the stems off and place them on a tray which we place on the children's table. We place another tray with a very small pitcher and a few very small bud vases. The child fills up the pitcher using water from the bathroom sink, brings it back to the table and pours the water in a bud vase of their choosing. Th

ReplyDeletePS - Natalie Faith is precious!
So many of God's promises came to fruition in that one birth.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to be on the other side of the birth of this Child, and His Peace and Comfort is much needed in the world.

ReplyDeleteNatalie reminds us (alongside your scripture) of how glorious it is that God started with a baby.
ReplyDeleteThe photo certainly brings the verse to life, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteI've always loved this verse. Thanks for sharing it so I can hear it again this morning. A precious photo of your granddaughter.
ReplyDeleteHave a merry December week.

ps........yes, I heard there was a shortage of live Christmas trees this year. I was told that where I live people often get a permit and can cut their own tree in the woods. And I think some might have artificial trees also, as I was talking with someone at the store who does. : )
Precious!! She is adorable!
