'Just Think' Poem

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
~Ecclesiastes 3:1

Just think,
you're here not by chance,
but by God's choosing.
His hand formed you
and made you
the person you are.
He compares you to no one else-
you are one of a kind. 
You lack nothing 
that His grace can't give you.
He has allowed you to be here at this time in history
to fulfill His special purpose
for this generation.

November

"November comes 
And November goes, 
With the last red berries 
And the first white snows.

With night coming early, 
And dawn coming late, 
And ice in the bucket 
And frost by the gate.

The fires burn 
And the kettles sing, 
And earth sinks to rest 
Until next spring."
-  Elizabeth Coatsworth

France Daydreaming

I have traveled to Paris and the south of France and fell in love with it. I think back on that trip all the time and dream of going there again. Here are some beautiful photos that I discovered today.

5 Things I Love

I adore this photo, her funky outfit, the street cafe.. just love it! 




Whoever rides this thing must be very talented. 




Château de la Reine Blanche. Isn't it the cuttest little castle?!





I love this little loft room with it's wooden steps to a little door in the wall, the low bed and it's lacey cover. 




Gardening in a dress + big straw hat + rubber boots = Love

Fall Clothes

Fall will be here soon and I'm looking forward to fall colors, cooler weather, and wearing warm cozy clothes. Here are some things I have my eye on. Sadly some of them are out of my price range but, it's always nice to dream.

A pair of ridding boots that look like these...

I found a pair like these at H&M that I love
