Dear Sioux Center,
I love your trees, your little boulevard, your bike trail... I love walking past the football field, the swimming pool, some lovely friends' houses... I love quiet walks through your neighborhoods, little town.
Dear Will,
Wowza. Jackpot. I found out that if you get three naps a day, you giggle and smile every other waking moment. You also slept from 8:30-5:30 last night. You are an angel child. Quit making all the other mamas out there jealous. It's really not very nice. Also, I am thinking about cutting your hair - you have a nasty cowlick in the back. Also also, I may kiss your cheeks right off your face. The odds are high...
Dear Mark,
Come home soon, and quit going on so many trips. Will and I miss you. We want to have family cuddle time again. Since you are doing ministry sorts of things, I suppose we will try to be patient...
Dear Iced Decaf Americanos,
You bring so much joy to my life. Thank you ever so much.
Dear Garden,
I gave up on you. I'm so sorry. Let's try again next year with raised beds, mmmkay?
Dear Self,
Never start a garden for the first time when your baby is under three months. Dumb, dumb idea.
Dear Ina Garten,
I am in love with you and your husband and your food adventures. Can I come over soon-ish?
Dear Jesus,
You are so good to me. Thank you for throwing some happy things in to brighten up some of the stressful days. You are a Good Encourager. Love you lots and lots.
Sincerely,
Liza Jane DeYounge
I love Ina too....with her blue shirts and her deep throaty laugh....great post, friend. Love you.
