New Mercies

We have returned to home sweet home after many miles humming down the road in rain, shine, snow and even a spit of hail…and I’m reflecting on all the mercies that were ours along the way…
Beauty of sunshine and of pre-dawn snow…

Sandtrucks that appear in the rearview mirror just when the pass seems impassable, and bravely lead the way.

Miles and miles of safe driving and long napping (mine), and free coffee  (Thanks McD’s!) for those who must stay alert!
Feasting with family, pork-fest and turkey feast, crepes and cream–celebrating firstborn’s birthday, an early American Thanksgiving and just being together….

Being Grandmom to the one with the up-stretched arms and hug-hungry heart who says “Up” in that winsome little way.

Kindness and wisdom seen in offspring now grown…

Never being too old to fulfill a dream

A daughter-in-heart that radiates acceptance of this new family of hers and continues to cherish my firstborn son unconditionally.

And Baby-joy!

And I’m on tiptoes to see what new mercies tomorrow will bring…

…His mercies are new every morning.  Great is Thy faithfulness, O Lord…(Lam.3:23,24)
