Thankful for.. Good Friday, a curtain torn in two, our only hope being the best and most solid hope, darkness covering the land as the punishment brings us peace, that we know the three days later story, for my Lord and my God not giving up, not stepping off the cross despite the taunting crowd. Thankful that there is a way to live with God in this world, that freedom is on offer and that the mercies are wide and flowing from the heart of our Maker. Crazy love.

Tonight’s activity seems to be making top trumps cards of people the boys know. First up is me. Mummy - Disgustingness - 0 (it was agreed that son2 would score 100) kindness - 100 huggles- 100 Fart smell 10 (out of 10 apparently) and funny - 40 (daddy wins that one with 100, son1 said, it’s just that you’re not that funny mummy... hmm). #toptrumps #atleasttheywrotesomething #rollonmondayRidiculously beautiful world. Soon the sun will rise before I get out of the house but these last weeks of sunrises are proving good for this weary soul. Especially when this line from Karine Polwart’s Four Strong Walls fills me with delight at the nature of my Makers love for me - “I see myself as you see me my friend, oh you put me back together again” #hope #spring #wonder #joy #sunrise #music #balmformywearysoulEven black dog days are made better with sunshine and pretty flowers. Hello spring hope. #blueskies #flowers #hopeSomething is missing...
