Countdown 6 days!

Actually I got an e-mail from my Meghan – the South Carolina daughter with whom I’m spending my holiday – this morning and she had the countdown in HOURS – hours, not days. How thrilling is that? She had it at 152 hours and just happened to mention that it’s very warm there today, said…

Countdown 8 Days

One week and one day – I can hardly wait. What does that mean anyway? Of course I can wait. How would I NOT wait? I will do what countless women have done through the ages – clean something! In fact, I have closets, cupboards, drawers, all of which will be at least touched…

Countdown 9 Days, part two

So the last time we were together, the three of us, was eight months ago – EIGHT MONTHS! There was a time that I didn’t go eight HOURS without hugging them and now it’s eight months and will be more since we shared a group – all three of us – hug. I do not…

COUNTDOWN 9 Days part one

Countdown to …? I’m counting down till I get on a plane and fly to a warmer climate for Christmas and nine days of holiday. That would be exciting any time, but most special now because I’m spending my holiday with one of my daughters. It’s a gift from the girls together, very precious to…

Time Redeemed

For a day that began with a post entitled Scattered (scroll down) it ended up being a gift, truly!

Scattered

It’s already 9:30 a.m. and not much accomplished yet. I spent the requisite time bundling up to head out and unload my truck, left full and outside upon last night’s tired arrival home. I’ve gone online and looked at today’s offering in my French Advent calendar, read all the email from yesterday – what happens…

SNOW DAY!!!!

There was a time when the words Snow Day brought a great deal of excitement. An unexpected gift, a free day, no school, put on your snow-pants – remember those? – and head outside to make snow angels, a snowman or just play in the snow. Funny how things change as we get older …..…

Little Sparkles part two

Wouldn’t you know it? Having just decided on the name of my project here, Her Father’s Homestead, this morning’s message was based on The Lord’s Prayer, which begins with those words familiar to many, “Our Father…” Affirmation, confirmation, call it what you will. I call it Little Sparkles (scroll down to Part One for definition) …

AFFIRMATIONS aka LITTLE SPARKLES Part One

If you live where I do, known by several names, among them Lake Country or the Northwoods, you may know what I mean by Little Sparkles. When it’s really cold as it is today, minus four degrees this morning, thankfully no wind, the snow becomes drier and it appears that someone shook glitter over it. …
