Sarah Short and Gaudy

I am treasured wife and girlfriend to Don, who by the way is pretty close to having developed the patience of a saint over the past 11 years. I am the constantly busy mother of 5, ages 6,7,9,10 and 11! (boy, girl, boy, girl,& boy) I love people and their idiosyncrasies! I enjoy having many friends with varying interest and personalities! God has richly blessed me! The notes above are only a small sampling of all He has accomplished on my behalf. YEAH GOD!!!

Morning Mercies

Great is Your faithfulness!

Lunch at a friends house. Kids played, I was weepy, but she was okay with that.
I didn't have to cook or clean up, Yea!!
Watermelon
Muck outside drying up.
Swimming with the kids. ( a form of exercise I rarely get, and my body is reminding me of that fact!)
Riding right next to Don in his pickup.
Cruising at 45mph because we are both so tired/ relaxed.
Pancake supper at my parents.
Uninterrupted conversations and sleep with my best friend, Don.
Peace that is not dependent on my circumstances
Kids who finally mellow out and aren't constantly bickering.
Notes of encouragement.
Quiet
