I’m a cup of tea in a world of lattes.

Daughter #1 here. Happy Wednesday.

Good news for you, readers, next week is the Dancing with the Stars finale. Having finally gotten rid of Sean Spicer, the semi-finals were left with five dancers of basically the same ability. At this point, I feel like the finale will come down to the pro and their choreography skills. Sorry, Lauren Alaina, Gleb doesn’t have what it takes.

It was a lovely day in Mid-Mo–and tomorrow it is going to be in the upper 60s. I’ll take it. Of course, I can’t believe that Thanksgiving is next week–and Advent starts a week from Sunday. I wait until December to start taking out any Christmas decorations–even so, this means it is almost time to dig into the closet and find the stuff purchased on sale after Christmas last year. My favorite.

Lately, my posts seem to conclude with the reminder that we have to create our own joy in our small worlds because the big world is increasingly overwhelming. For me, this means picking out Christmas presents, thinking about which stickers go on which cards, making playdates with the not-so Wee Babes etc. So with your weekly reminder complete, enjoy this song from my current fave, Zach Williams.
