You would think as a stay at home momma I would make all my mornings my favorite. That I would remember what makes the girls and I thrive. The simple pleasures that warm our hearts and brighten our days. Sadly that is not the case. I find it is all to easy to get wrapped up in the hustle and bustle of life. I forget I can stop having a bad morning and change the pace of our day.
It has been a fight, a fight that I have not yet won but will continue to partake in. A fight to remember what is important, who is important, a fight to live counter cultural. Some days are better than others but everyday is worth it, bruises and all.
Give ear to my words, O Lord; consider my groaning. Give attention to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to you do I pray. O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.
Psalm 5:1-3

| Even Mouse Trap likes to take it easy in the mornings |
 |
| Taking our time working in the garden and helping it grow |
 |
| Catching tiny grasshoppers |
 |
| Enjoying the squash blossoms |
 |
| Slowing down for a walk |
 |
| An impromptu photo shoot...with a chicken walking by |
 |
| Playing chicken herder |
 |
| Turns out the chickens don't want to be herded |
 |
| Finding beautiful flowers for the table |
 |
| Soaking in God's beauty |
