"Just a little sunshine...."

I know the last few posts have been pretty heavy, but it is simply where we are in life - and will be for a very long time. I make no apologies. I need to write, and have just only now begun to slowly open up my heart to attempt to write again. I am also beginning to try to sing again - I never dreamed it would be this hard to begin to do the 2 things that I love so much again. But little by little (and I do mean little), God is beginning to allow me to write and sing - neither is easy or really even comforting right now - but maybe in time it will be - maybe. Right now, there is not much that is comforting, other than God, who is the creator of comfort, the Comforter Himself. I suppose that's all I need to bring me comfort, but oh how many other things we look to for comfort in this life. There is nothing here for us, everything here is so temporal - even our quest for earthly comfort.  There is nothing here on earth to satisfy our deepest longings and to bring the comfort in all areas of life that we are all seeking...., except God and His Son, Christ Jesus.  Looking around will never bring comfort - only looking up will.

Okay, that was heavy too, but clearly I need to write for my own journey of healing.

No more heaviness in this post!

Enjoy some pictures of my little "sunshine's".  Oh, how they do make me smile.

Elijah Brooks bought these sunflower seeds and planted them about 3 months ago.  Voila!

Very proud of his work


I have my hands full with this little darling!!!!  Where did my infant go?  She is growing TOO quickly.

She LOVES this tunnel. She knew just what to do the 1st time I brought it out. No fear - just went straight into it.




Yep, I get to look into these eyes every day!

Couldn't resist - she had just turned around to crawl back out


I can't believe this BIG BOY used to crawl through just like Ellison

They both thought it was hysterical that the other one was in the tunnel - squeals of laughter could be heard across the neighborhood I am sure.
