Just.......be still.

In the early morning light when my eyes snap wide open and I race to get up, too quick to get to the doin' of the to do list of the day. When deep down I know I could have...when I know I should have stayed just a little while longer with my face pressed against Andrew's back...just be still. I hear it as we run through our days, one thing to the next to the next. Harried and haggard. Imperfect and incomplete. Just... be still. I hear it when my racing mind worries. Worries just for worrying and then worries for worrying too much. When the doubts and the fears and the what if's take over.

and this is something I have needed to do lately is just stop and take a moment to be still- I am sorry I have fallen off of the face of the blog. It seems it is so easy to let time slip away from us and with all the rushing and running something will give. and in my case it has been the blog... so if you will accept my apologize I will get back to updating and adding to the blogger world =]


Today more than any day, I just want to be still. To sit and be quiet and bask in the light of one perfect day. To slow down, to stop. To be still and know....that today, and everyday, I am loved.

Today I hope you find a porch swing. I hope you pause to sit by the water. I hope you hug a little longer. Breathe in a little more. Drink an extra glass of lemonade. Be still and remember... that always you are loved. <3
