Welcome to the Daybook. A weekly post here at The Littlest Way 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, cleaning, and learning. These are the small moments that make up my blessed daily life and I want to remember them. My prompts may change depending on season and circumstance.
*Have you checked out my Ebook, Bible Journaling Tips, Inspiration and Permission, to encourage and inspire you in your Bible journaling!

Praying…
Do you pray for your children’s future spouse? I am so hit and miss on this and really, really need to be completely hit on it. Share your prayers with me please.
Pondering…
“Jesus help me to simplify my life by learning what You want me to be and becoming that person.” St. Therese the Little Flower
Listening to…
The washing machine–of course and as usual, Chris and the boys wrestling, Maximilian cleaning up the kitchen, Leo singing something and the song “Loved” by JJ Jeller

Bible Journaling…
I cannot wait to start using the new Bible Journaling Kit, Gratitude. I don’t just use these kits for Bible journaling, I use them in my planner and prayer journal as well.
Around the House…
Chris needs to check our fireplace out for the season and containers of winter clothes are sitting in my living room waiting to be sorted. We probably need to do one last mow for the season. All of this on top of the usual home stuff.
In the Kitchen…
Chris grilled some steaks from our first homegrown steer. He said they were good. I have a big pot of Frito Chili Pie in the fridge. On the 31st, we’ll have S’mores around our little firepit.
Self Care
We’re getting our end of the year appointments lined up: my yearly, my dermotologist and all of our eye doctor visits scheduled. Time to switch out some diffuser scents to match the weather. (You can read here why I purchase my essential oils from Amazon instead of a distributor.)
