Daily Blessed: November Update...Fall, Tank, Blizzard

Things are busy around here! Our days seem to go by too fast as we try to fit everything in. Brent has been working a second job installing and repairing underground sprinkler systems since May. He still has a week or two left weather permitting. The kids are helping me sort out effective household management as well as working hard on our school work. We still have two little friends come for childcare weekday afternoons...and they have a baby brother on the way in just three weeks! Will miss them during maternity leave but then we'll have a fuller happier house when they all come back in January. I found a poem a while ago that made me think about how blessed we are here. I'll add it below:

The Little Home
By, Edgar A. Guest :)

The little house is not too small
to shelter friends who come to call.
Though low the roof and small its space
it holds the Lord's abounding grace,
and every simple room may be
endowed with happy memory.

The little house, severely plain,
a wealth of beauty may contain.
Within it those who dwell may find
high faith which makes for peace of mind,
and that sweet understanding which
can make the poorest cottage rich.

The little house can hold all things
from which the soul's contentment springs.
'Tis not too small for love to grow,
for all the joys that mortals know,
for mirth and song and that delight
which make the humblest dwelling bright.

I'm off to the garage to see what Tank has chewed on since I stared this entry! :)
Be blessed!
