slice #3



Sundays around our house are for recharging.  We very rarely have set plans, other than church.  Our weeks, like I'm sure most others experience, are hectic, busy, & full.  We are lazy most Sunday afternoons & don't feel guilty about it! 

The sky has been spitting snow all weekend, but not much of it has stuck.  Snow that doesn't stick & weekend snow really seem useless for teachers.  Just a tease.  This afternoon at church our worship leader thanked God for the snow that was quieting the earth.  I love that!  It made me think about how our Sundays quiet our minds, lives, schedules, & all the junk from the previous week.  They give us time to enjoy each other & reconnect.  Sunday evenings we usually talk about what each of us has coming up during the week & start gearing up to hit the ground running on Monday morning.  Sometimes our weeks are too hectic & we don't take the time to enjoy the moments we have.  But Sundays?  They quiet our earth.

  1. Gorgeous. Hooray for lazy Sunday afternoons! Mine was manic... I fear a toddler hasn't any idea how to be "lazy." :) I also love the image of quieting the earth... Thanks for sharing.

  2. I could use a few feet of snow in my life right now. I am busy, and have not taken the time to rest. I love the image of the sky spitting snow.
