Hearts of Christian HomeKeepers™

Yesterday was a big day at our house.  Two new beginnings.  It was Andy’s first day of first grade and the first day with our new puppy.  I just love new beginnings.   Fresh starts.  Clean slates.  And in this case, a new backpack, pointy unbroken Crayons and fresh holes in the backyard.

I love my life and the comfortable routine we have built here on our little 3 acres on a dirt road leading to virtually nowhere.  But I also like the idea of getting a fresh start each day when I wake up.  Yes, the coffee pot is still in the same spot on the counter and I like to drink my 2.5 cups with half and half out of my favorite LL Bean mug.  Okay, I am a creature of habit but I like knowing that the Lord gives me a clean sheet of paper each morning to make my mark on.  I don’t think He minds if it is the same mark  I made yesterday or the day before or last week.  I’m just grateful that I can still use the Crayons!
