stacie's sacred space

enough said

my favorite daily calendar that sits on the sill above my kitchen sink was behind from being away.

i noticed and still couldn't even turn it yesterday.

i was too busy loving all over my family!

today, it got quiet after i got the big kids off to school.

i was thinking about grandma f (since today would've been her 85th birthday) getting ready to clean the kitchen, and i turned the page.

this was it.

great message for me right now in the very moment.

god spoke.

my heart was open to really hear these words.

i'm still processing all that's gone on in my life in 20twelve so far.

it's been a lot!

and that sums up my feelings.

gotta go get on with my rainy day now.

the little things

i got a thank you note in the mail last week from a newish friend, jenny.

i had to read it a couple times.

it made me smile and cry at the same time!

how's that for real joy?

the thing she was thanking me for was something i thought was really little.

i like little things.

i love to share little things!

sometimes they are so little that nagging inner critic tells me they are too tiny to share.

in this thank you note, jenny shared a story about how my gift came just at the right time in her life.

serendipity ... yep, i believe in it!

that thank you note was so touching to me that i wanted to sit down and write thank you notes to all of the people who do so much for me (yes, even in the little things!).

this isn't the only time recently that i've heard how much little things i do touch others.

so gosh, darn it, i am going to continue my mission to quiet that inner critic (maybe even kick her out of my life).

i'm also gonna get caught up on my own thank you notes.

sometimes the little things make a big difference!!
