today

i've been focusing on what isn't right instead of what is. an icky girl day where things aren't just so and i feel like i'm not lovable, worthy, etc. so, in a lovely gesture from my heavenly Father i was given a glimpse of a hummingbird drinking up the goodness of our fully revived lantana, a brief window between downpours to run in to home depot with mama and til to grab a few plants, and a nice phone chat with a good friend. i also received our new, begging-to-be-explored camera.



birthday party sneak peek.



my subjects











our garden over-groweth.



after finally figuring out the manual focus, things got a little clearer. literally.

It's so good to let him speak Truth in to our lives. I tend to focus on the negative a lot and moments like the hummingbird moment are special!
