I had a wonderfully sweet night tonight. And it wasn’t just because I was baking all evening.
All my kids and their significant others were in the kitchen/family room area, helping bake, laughing, joking, talking. It was a beautiful thing to my eyes and ears. Warmth and love all over the place. Just enjoying one another. At one point, I got to overhear two of my girls talking about all that God has been doing and teaching and working with lately. It was precious. My family is growing and the love keeps getting bigger.
My mommy heart is full tonight. And on this night before Thanksgiving, I am so very thankful. It has been a crazy and unsettling past couple of weeks. But God is doing amazing things right before my eyes. Again, I am in awe. The God in whom I rest and wait is answering the cry of my heart. And I will never get over that….
My pie turned out beautifully. My homemade rolls are perfectly golden. The brownies smell delicious. But the sweetest part of the night was not what I did, but what God did in my kitchen. Delectable!
