These pictures were taken on the last day of our trip. We were sad to leave, and I even got a little teary on ferry pulling away from the dock. There's something about getting away from your home and your life in such a relaxed place that let's you breath a little easier. The time we spent together as a family was priceless. We had lazy days and nights spent in town, shopping, and on the beach.
So long Martha's Vineyard. Can't wait to come back next year!

Mama Said Monday
Pray Often
I start and end every day in prayer. Prayer for a great day, to learn new things, patience, and strength. I also pray with the nuggets. I'm not perfect, so sometimes I forget to pray with the kids particularly at breakfast. Mornings are crazy. Whether we're getting ready to go to the gym, or school, we're usually rushing around. The funny thing is the days I forget to pray are usually the days that there is fighting amongst the troops, meltdowns, and crabiness (is that a word?). When the trouble comes, the first thing I do? Pray. I gather the nuggets together, have a little pow-wow, and pray. It's amazing how the attitude and heart turn around. The nuggets will play well together, they will smile, and be the happy nuggets I know they are.
Having a rough day? Pray. The Lord will answer you because he loves you.
Happy Monday all!
Absolutely beautiful post from the pictures to the prayers, thank you!
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures, stunning really ! Glad you had a great holiday :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you guys had a great time. We are on vacation right now and loving every minute of it. I used to pray a lot and then i fell away from it. But I do believe in the power of prayer. When we were deciding what to do about my husband's job, I prayed for guidance and we got it. Everything worked out. Great post Lulu. Love all your fabulous outfits from J Crew. Have some bday money and i'm headed to J Crew in Calgary for some shopping. I can't wait.
