I would have to say that Fall is my favorite Season. I always tell Ali that I can smell fall coming. With Fall comes cooler weather, the start of a new school year, football games, soups and chili for supper, sweat shirts, Thanksgiving, the smell of cinnamon and spice candles burning... I absolutely Love it! Fall is such a cozy season. Fall also brings LEAVES! I love the leaves and the colors they start to turn. Our new house has these huge pine trees in front so we don't have to worry about leaves falling, but our neighbors do! Today the kids and I raked leaves and made piles and Peyton jumped in them.. Ali wasn't happy about that because she had worked her tail end off getting them just so... I will have to post the pictures tomorrow, the camera is in the car and I am too cozy on the couch right now and besides, it's COLD out! Anyways, I started thinking about how seasons bring change and not just with the weather. We go through Seasons with the Lord too and I feel like I am beginning to come into another Season with HIM now..a time to draw even closer to HIM. I am excited about this new Season, I am looking forward to what HE has in store for me and my family and what HE is going to teach me in this Season...I just pray that I can be STILL long enough to hear HIM. In the past I've been known to only hear HIM while using the bathroom or taking a shower and sometimes not even those times are a very quiet time,and those with younger ones know what I am talking about..you can't go pee or take a shower without at least one or two kids right there with you =) Anyways, I posted one of my favorite scriptures From Ecclisiastes........... I will put pictures up tomorrow!!!
There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

those pictures are great....when you were born, your hair was the color of autum ... and as you have grown - so has your heart become that same spirit ...warm, colorful, the fullness of family and being together...sweet aromas and snuggling......and most of all comfort.....you & your life have become such a blessing to others - just like this time of year as we all gather together to thank our Lord for all that HE has provided including HIS precious son!
love you ..... mom :)
