Well&#8230;other than more sleep (see, I&#8217;m doing this blog just before dinner my time-not in the middle of the night! Sometimes a girl has to vent&#8230;and I vent through the written word. Although sometimes it&#8217;s better to not vent online-it&#8217;s there forever&#8230;..) I thought I&#8217;d show you my &#8220;Wish List&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It includes:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daisysgarden.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/beach.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-568\" title=\"North Carolina Beach\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daisysgarden.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/beach.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"274\" height=\"184\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daisysgarden.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/beach2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-569\" title=\"beach2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daisysgarden.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/beach2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"288\" height=\"216\" \/><\/a>This is what I imagine Heaven is like:) These are photos of North Carolina&#8217;s beaches. Prince Edward Island&#8230;but warmer. Sand Dunes, Waves, salt sea air&#8230;.peace and quiet&#8230;yup vacation!<\/p>\n<p>Really, that&#8217;s all I wish right now. I&#8217;ve learned recently that even more so that ever before we as humans, really North Americans have too much stuff. (Says a Kindergarten teacher with 20 boxes of &#8220;stuff&#8221; in her garage. Honestly it is all teaching material and a huge investment in my career) I want to learn to give more than desire things. My girls are way more important than stuff&#8230;.and even a vacation as breathtaking as the one above would be. People are more important. How we talk&#8230;.how we listen&#8230;how we give to others.<\/p>\n<p>Not saying it isn&#8217;t nice to look at things. It is. I&#8217;m just giving myself a check up in the area of how much of it do I actually &#8220;need&#8221;. For me&#8230;probably not much. This is something I seem to be constantly working on. There never is an end to it in my opinion. We are so surrounded my media constantly telling us about a sale&#8230;even telling us how to save money by using coupons \ud83d\ude42 But how many bottles of shampoo do you need right now? How about in your life?<\/p>\n<p>That being said. God gives us the desires of our hearts (Psalm 37:4)&#8230;after we delight in Him. Delighting in Him is as simple as being kind to a stranger or helping missionaries in need. It&#8217;s the simple things. Like today&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Here in Canada, it&#8217;s Canada Day! It&#8217;s been nice to spend time at home as a family. We did go and look at a piece of land to build a house for our expanding family &amp; business. It was a beautiful morning. The sky was so blue and the grass so green. Now I&#8217;ll have to go look when it&#8217;s raining and see if we get the same feeling we did today. There are so many things to consider when you are buying a large lot like we are planning on doing. No need to rush it, as I&#8217;m not &#8220;allowed&#8221; to want to move forever \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Lil&#8217; A and her Daddy just returned from an errand for me, so I need to go and be mommy for a bit. Hopefully I will get started on the long list of posts I have been jotting down to write.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Weekend!<\/p>\n<p>Krystle<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I&#8217;ve blog stalking (I&#8217;ve heard this phrase as of late&#8230;I&#8217;m sure it will be entered into the dictionary at some point in the near future) this really cute blog called &#8220;Love Stitched&#8221; and she does a post about what she is wishing for.
