Fall is a time for change. We put our summer clothes away and bring out the sweaters. We buy the firewood and gather together to prepare to "hibernate" for the winter. This year fall began on September 23. Seems like just yesterday we were beginning the summer months. Fall is undoubtedly my favorite season. Our family "happenings" remind me of our acceptance of change. We are always coming and going...beginning something new and exciting. One thing is for certain, our daily lives may encompass change but God's love for us is constant. We may not stay the same but He remains the same. God is who He says He is! What a comfort to know that in the midst of everything we do, He will richly bless His children beyond measure!
Here are our "blessings of autumn"
Evan begins another year of preschool
The Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade classes at Colin's school rode the Amtrak to High Point, NC
They enjoyed quite a bit of history at the High Point Museum, including what is behind the name. High Point was incorporated in 1859 and was named after the "highest point" on the North Carolina Railroad between Goldsboro and Charlotte.
How tall are we this year?
