| Blessing Realized: This last Wednesday, my husband and I moved into an absolutely dream-come-true cottage. It's a small two bed room, one bathroom (yes, only one bathroom) older cottage, recently remodeled a bit. New carpet & flooring and paint; fireplace and wood stove; office and mudroom. Cute. Little. Tons of character. The best part? It's on a lake! |

The balcony off of the living room overlooks the back yard which overlooks the lake.

We have a boathouse that has been converted into a very rustic sauna & changing room and a dock for a boat and for jumping off and swimming.This is a wonderful sweet answer to many of my prayers. I have always wanted to live in a house on the water.
Blessing in Disguise: This last Saturday, my husband and I were part of an outreach team for our church's upcoming Easter service. We were walking through the neighborhoods near our church's location when I slipped on a wet, slimy wooden sidewalk and broke my ankle (yes, I broke it!). |

We were only half way done with our outreach effort...My husband was leading the team...also, we had just moved into our new house and had lots of unpacking and settling in to do...

| Getting my cast |
The Lord has promised in His Word that He will use everything for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purposes (well, that's me!).

| Green, it's my favorite color! |
Allow me to say that though I haven't discovered the blessing in this little circumstance just yet, I have been looking for it. I'll let you know as soon as I've found it!
