JOY

Last night I went for a long bike ride and was just overwhelmed with JOY. Yes, true JOY. It has been so nice having the kids home from school, having nice weather, feeling healthy, having energy, loving my family. So very much to be thankful for and to be JOYFUL about. The summer is just beginning and I am looking forward to each and every day! Yesterday I had time to lay in the sun, read, exercise, grocery shop and more. The kids have been having a blast with each other and with their friends. I am still amazed at how they are growing up and understanding so much more. Also they are helping around the house so much more, since schools out. I praise God for the seasons of life, and rejoice that JOY has come!
