Mom’s Musings

It’s the little things

The theme for my Haiku poems this Friday is appreciation of all the little things that contributes to a happy, contented frame of mind.

Trouble a’ plenty

Hear the news, look around you

But, not just at that

Whispers of heaven

Hints of good and perfect gifts

In the little things

Fragrant brew, coffee

Made by my loving Hubby

While I slept in; Mmmm!

Leisurely morning

Read my Bible, read my blogs

Family talking

My girls scrapbooking

Fun times with friends, a present

To be treasured

Time in the kitchen

A special pastry, almond

Share with friends tonight

Kayla and Sarah,

Surprise! They’re home for dinner

A joy to see them

A brisk twilight walk

Do you smell the coming snow?

Invigorating

Now rush through the dark

Meet with friends, hear the children

Joyful music play

Cozy candlelight

Murmuring conversation

Saying, “I love you.”

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for the little things

Good gifts from Your hand.
