Striving for Simplicity: Purging & Orphans

June 26, 2010 Linny Saunders16 Comments

When I first started really trying to simplify, it was hard – stinkin’ hard! For starters: I am a sentimental person. Somehow, every special moment that held a treasured memory needed to be remembered with a tangible item {or so I thought}. As a young girl I was known to even keep a napkin that…

Gardening: {With a Boatload}

I really can’t think of much I would rather do then work outside in the garden as a family. There is something so gratifying about working hard {and playin’ hard} and seeing the fruits of our labor. Last week-end we worked together and put in our garden. Dw had built some raised beds out of…

Happy Father’s Day to the man who is my soul mate and best friend. The man who has shared the journey with me for the last {almost!} 32 years. The man whose heart beat resembles Jesus’ heart beat more than any other man I have ever had opportunity to meet or know. The man who…

First let me say, I am feeling very vulnerable. Many of you may find it hard to imagine, but I really am a very private person. No doubt, those closest to me would vouch for it. So to be living our lives and sharing my heart so publicly is a sure sign that God’s grace…

Not sure why she’s so embarassed to have her picture taken….hanging around Graham too long I guess… Chick-fil-A…

First…. The other day I got an email from Rand, Josh’s dad.

Bright, early, up and about…. Riding toys come out with a shout… Princess gowns and scooters are paired…. Riding toys and bikes all must be shared….

Although this would make a great Memorial Box Monday post, I really can’t wait that long. Monday seems forever away and I just feel it must be shared today. Maybe because I know that many of you are enduring painful trials. Things that have rocked your world. Situations that are out of your control. Deep…

Last week I explained, again, exactly what a Memorial Box is. For our family, it is one of our most treasured possessions. It hangs in a prominent spot in our home, where we are continually reminded of God’s faithfulness in our lives. This week I am going to tell a very, very simple story. It…
