Welcome to my weekly post, Daybook Online Journal here at The Littlest Way. This is a post where I gather all the ordinary things that happen or are happening in my day to day. Things like what I’m reading or listening to…eating and cleaning and learning…These are the small moments that make up my blessed daily life; and I want to remember them. I would love to read your Daybook Online Journal, just leave it in the comments section below. You can use my prompts or make up your own to include items important to you; mine change depending on season and circumstance.

Praying…
It seems I have so much to pray for I’m not sure where to start.
Pondering…
Listening to…
The River
Maximilian, Leo and I had an impromptu dance party in the car the other day while waiting for Luke’s soccer game to start. Leo needed coaxing and of course Maximilian did not!
Reading…
My large print Bible
Everyday Sacrament: The Messy Grace of Parenting
Bible Journaling…
Since we started back to school and soccer a couple of weeks ago, my Bible journaling time has decreased. Not the “old school” pen and paper way so much as the artistic journaling.
Around the House…
EVERYTHING needs dusted. Why am I just now noticing this? Did the sun shift to a different angel that suddenly revealed more dust? Or new dust?
In the Kitchen…
I just got shipping confirmation from Amazon for Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook: Eat Up and Slim Down with More Than 350 Healthy Recipes and Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook: Eat Up and Slim Down with More Than 350 Healthy Recipes and I’m still loving my Build a Menu subscription to help me stay on track. My children even know and will tell me, “Momma, that will make you feel bad if you eat it.”
I shared 20 Chicken Recipes for Big Families last week and will share 20 Beef Recipes for Big Families this week. As I mentioned in my posts, I just do what I do when it comes to feeding my big family, not realizing that some people would like to know how we do what we do! I know I would have just out of curiosity before I had my family and then once I started having children, out of “Help me figure this all out please!”

Thank you for this post. You remind me that there are so many simple things to give thanks for. Thanks too for reminding me that some opportunities are so special we need to take them – like spending time here in England with my father…This time will not come again!
