knock on wood


my husband is out of town and will be in and out throughout march. my mantra . . . patience that passes all understanding . . . i ask and plead, i have been granted thus far . . . this season has just begun. finding joy in the simple things brings peace. seeing the beauty around us = peace. and this peace . . . it walks hand in hand with the patience i seek. i love the way the sun comes through our windows, peace. a full french press of stumptown as i rub the sleep out of my eyes, peace. little birds hopping around finding the smallest of seeds out the kitchen window, peace. knitting a few stiches or organizing my thread, peace. my wonderful daughters creating, being uniquely themselves and confident . . . peace. a warm home, peace. food, peace. love, peace.
