Little Bits

Everything seems to be growing by leaps and bounds lately! Our little "garden" is sprouting up nicely, and our children seem to grow daily. I don't always notice so much until I put a dress on Rosa and realize it's now a tunic. 

They still love to tend and visit the plants devotedly -- our peppers have probably tripled in size since I snapped these photos. This is probably our first success with any sort of plant (not that we've tried much in the past), so it's quite exciting for all of us!

Today was the perfect day for a trip to the park, cool and overcast, with a bit of a breeze. Even Mama wanted to linger. We had lunch at the sweetest little eatery afterwards. The yellow umbrella at our table -- presumably placed to shade diners from the sun -- turned out to be the only sunshine we had! 

I've been going through the book of Ecclesiastes with some ladies in a Bible Study, and it's been wonderful. I've always loved Ecclesiastes, but digging into it deeper is showing me so many things I'd missed before. It's a good reminder to enjoy the little bits of life.
