A most wonderful birthday gift arrived yesterday…. Oh, my! This is going to be SO good. (…and if you live in an area that doesn’t have Gigi’s, I’m truly sorry.) Thank you, again! There are going to be some super-excited Lamberts! 😀

traveling with my honey….
A DAY after we returned from our trip to Kentucky, I left for Texas with Paul. We had such a good time. It’s been more than a year since I’ve gone on a work trip with him. I spent the time while he worked, planning our next school year, making menus and soaking up the sun. It was relaxing and…
from our trip last week….
The children LOVED the hotel pool during our recent vacation. Having never been in a big pool, Meredith was a little scared at first. By the time we left, she was swimming from one side to the next (still with water wings) and having the time of her life!
prayer
I had some pretty extensive testing done yesterday at our local hospital. They found some things, not surprising, but they are an issue. I wanted to ask for prayer. Thank you!
mama’s birthday
I guess this day has been easier than I originally thought- that’s not exactly what I’m thinking, but I don’t know any other way to write my thoughts. Maybe it’s been hard, but I have felt God’s grace all around. I have cried. My children have cried. I sat, with them all, in the blades of grass growing all around…
Community Fellowship Reminder- August 13th
We would love to have you! Message me for details.
Homeschooling
School days are beginning in our home. We typically are schooling through the summer and take our breaks during the cooler months. This year, we’re behind on some days so we’re probably going to be schooling through our break times. No one seems to mind, (or even notice). They just have a good time and enjoy exploring new ideas. These are…
one thousand gifts
One Thousand Gifts is one of the best books I’ve read in some time. It’s why I started this space originally. It’s why I can smile, even in the midst of heartache. It’s learning gratitude. 43. a reminder to be thankful *just* where I am 44. sausage biscuits on a Saturday morning 45. my favorite flip-flops on a hot, summer…
celebrating the 4th
Sweet summer memories…. Precious Jackson’s first slice of watermelon. We both were sticky- watching him eating watermelon would have been enough to make my whole day. (41. babies trying out their world for the first time…everything so amazing, so new) Be still, my heart. Ribs, macaroni and cheese, baked beans……men in my kitchen. Pure happiness.(42. family….how I love all…
home
As we go through our days, always striving to make this house more home, this quote was especially meaningful to me this morning: “it had a heart and a soul, and eyes to see with, and approvals and solicitudes and deep sympathies; it was of us, and we were in its confidence and lived in its grace and in the…

this week’s Bible verse: Courtney, changes these out each week as she reads through her Bible. Each verse is usually a reflection of something happening in our lives. Beautiful encouragement from the Word.
A Door Closed….
A door closed…. That’s what Courtney entitled the post on her blog. Many of you know, she’s been in a courtship with a young man in recent months. Some weeks back, Paul started having some rather serious concerns. He was up many nights praying and thinking through things. At the same time, Courtney had been having some reservations of her…
