Silver Lining September 30, 2010, at 9:30 pm | After yesterday’s beautiful weather, we got slammed today by heavy rain and high wind, which left me scrambling for indoor activities. We read lots of books, drew pictures, had a “picnic” in the basement, baked sugared apple wedges, and basically drove each other crazy. Fortunately, the rain had stopped by the evening, allowing us to take our daily walk to the mailbox. I think we were all grateful for the fresh air. The girls splashed in the puddles and played with the wet leaves and marveled at the strong wind. Their fascination with the effects of the storm almost made me thankful for the storm itself. I’m hoping I’ll have a similar gratitude for the first snowstorm of the winter…and the second…and the fifteenth!

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy!
