As the name of my blog indicates, I spend a lot of time thinking about home. Of course, my Heavenly Home is the one that is eternal, so that’s where I need to lay up my treasures, and that’s the one I’m striving for. But in the meantime, I have been given this tiny piece of the here-and-now—this home on the edge of town, this family, this neighborhood—in which to serve Him. And, though this is in the earthly realm, I want the things that happen here to be investments in the Heavenly realm.

On My Back Porch

On the back porch today is this lovely verbena.


My green-thumbed parents potted this for me, and Mom delivered it this week.  We have been concentrating on in-the-house projects and have done next to nothing outside, so this beautiful plant was much appreciated.  (Thanks Mom and Daddy!)



Also on the back porch...Pinky checking out a cardboard box.  (Of course.  She's a cat.)   
What is it, Pinky?  What?  Are you sure?


Pinky says it's the new sink!! 


Installation planned for next week...

  2. What a wonderful surprise from your parents! I am sooooo looking forward to seeing your new sink installed. And I am so excited for you, I have been wanting a farmhouse sink for so long, I am also moving closer each day to deciding to painting my oak cabinets, and getting that sink too! ~smile~
    Enjoy your day.
    Hugs,
    Sue

  3. Woot! Yay! Yabba dabba do!

    Sweet little pot of flowers that must go a long way to brighten up that spot and bring a grin to your face just seeing it there.
