last year i did a "taking stock" post after reading one by ashley who blogs over at the vanilla tulip. i loved the format and idea of slowing down to notice the little things. it's also fun to look back & see what you took stock of in the past. here's mine.
making :: my second cup of coffee.
cooking :: leftover pad thai. who else loves random leftovers for breakfast!?
drinking :: a kona blend k-cup my daddy gave me w/ a splash of chocolate cashew milk {<-- fave}.
reading :: savor, a devotional by shauna niequist.
wanting :: all the books. so many books, so little time.
looking :: outside our window in the kitchen.
playing :: pat-a-cake & peek-a-boo with charlotte a million times a day.
wishing :: time would slow down.
enjoying :: the cool mornings as a hint fall is coming in a month!
liking :: my new farmer's market stamps.
wondering :: what foods will charlotte enjoy the most when we eventually start introducing them.
loving :: my sweet, hardworking husband who did the dishes last night.
hoping :: the stains come out from charlotte's blowout this morning {real life, people}.
marveling :: at mercy with the new morning {lamentations 3:23}.
needing :: to chill out if my to-do list isn't always completed.
smelling :: lemon, lavender & peppermint {yay for the allergy blend!} diffusing.
wearing :: stress away essential oil on the daily.
noticing :: charlotte is such a morning person. she coos and smiles as soon as she wakes up.
knowing :: i need to be still & know the Lord is God {psalm 46:10}.
thinking :: about fall decorations.
opening :: my planner to meal plan.
giggling :: everyday thanks to my hilarious husband & darling daughter.
feeling :: all the feelings. often tired. sometimes overwhelmed. always blessed&thankful.
have you slowed down to take stock of what's going on in your life lately?
