the pleasing rhythm of everyday

c. Emily/song of the sea









Life has just started to slow down into the pleasing rhythm of  ( almost, not quite) ordinary days.
My sister Hannah's graduation was beautiful and so much fun! I am so proud of my big sis and the beautiful,godly woman the Lord is fashioning in her! ( Pictures of the ceremony are coming!!!)

My life this week has been full of taking pictures, going for walks with my two favorite littles in the world ( brother and baby sister), cooking, chores, tea, lots and lots of drawing ( want to see some?), family Bible time, singing, studying,history with my brother, music, talking, leftover graduation cake ( =, flowers, coffee, pondering, dish-washing, smiles, sniffles, light, wonder...more comes to mind as I write.

You know, life is simple and wondrous every day.

We just need to recognize it all comes out of our Father's loving hand.

Much love,
Emily

rose of my heart


A poem I wrote today.


Rose of My Heart Allegory


Rose of my heart, sing sweetly as you grow in faith
Knowing one day
The Gardener's work will be finished in you

Open your petals to the sky
As your roots grow deep
As trials and love deepen your
Trust

Inspire others to love Him
Grow in His love
Grow in your love for His people

One day your petals will fall
And all that will be left is a soul
             taken up to your LORD
Perfected by the Master

HE
Who planted you
Who grew you
Who watered you
Who tenderly pruned you
Who picked you.
~

Much love,
Emily
