The Bottom...

"The Bottom?" Piglet squeaked anxiously.  "I am not at all sure I want to get to the Bottom."

"You'll let me know if we're getting near the Bottom, won't you, Pooh?"  Piglet asked nervously.  "Of course, Piglet," said Pooh.  "I just hope I know it when I see it."

Piglet and Pooh were on the lookout for the Bottom - which might have been behind or under or near - when they rounded a bend and bumped into Eeyore.

"Why are we stopping?"  Piglet asked anxiously.  "Have we found the Bottom?"

"I don't know," Eeyore said.  "But we have found Tigger."

Over the last forty days, I believe I have felt a whole lot like Piglet, anxiously looking for something but not entirely sure exactly what.  

Somewhat like Pooh, hopeful I would know what I was searching for when I saw it.  

And ended feeling like Eeyore.  

I found something but not sure it was what I thought I would find.

What I did find for sure was a much needed, refreshing break.  We live in a world of constant communication.  Some, good.  Most, likely...just wasteful.  

This blog is a great deal like that.  Some of my energy spent on it is a good thing.  Keeps the family and friends updated.  

But a fair amount of my energy spent on it was just wasteful.  

Praying the Lord will help me stay focused on Him and His words and less on my own.

I will do my best get to all our Christmas and New Year updates.  We had a truly blessed holiday season.  Our first as a family of four.  Not sure how it's possible, but I fell even more in love with my husband and two kids.  Really, my heart felt like it would burst so many times.

For today, I'll just post a few of my favorite iPhone photos.  Enjoy!  

And if you're still around reading, thanks for your patience!
