Petunia June: {Books}
http://petuniajune.blogspot.com/p/books_25.html
Blog post written in 2012, yet the book recommendations are updated from time to time.). The love of learning, the sequestered nooks,. And all the sweet serenity of books. Among the earliest pictures of Drew, our oldest, is one of his daddy cradling him in the hospital. Both look a tad worn out from the ordeal of birth. In one hand, his daddy holds a book: The Poky Little Puppy. There are many little ways to enlarge your child's world. Love of books is the best of all. Which is why I've developed this pa...

Petunia June: April 2015
http://petuniajune.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 14, 2015. Tuesday Tip: Give Slow Food a Try}. Perhaps you've heard of the slow food movement. Perhaps you even embrace it without knowing it has a name. Slow food, as the term suggests, is the opposite of fast food. It takes time. It takes thought. It takes energy. But, as with many things in this life, taking the time to plan and prepare one's food can lead to an even greater sense of satisfaction and enjoyment. I think this was the Easter bread. But, my brain.). The time to make it, but ...

Library Living: Kony, Facebook, and Time
http://andnewbeginnings.blogspot.com/2012/03/kony-facebook-and-time.html
These are day to day adventures of me, Rebekah Skinner; an average girl attending WSU. Thursday, March 8, 2012. Kony, Facebook, and Time. First, yes I am going "jump on the band wagon" and post about Kony 2012. If you have not seen the viral video you can watch it here. But if you are even somewhat connected to the world, I 'm guessing you've seen it. This is old news, and I honestly don't care about some crack pot youtube video maker" (real quote). Anyways, enough of all that. I have one day of class, o...

Dusk: April 2015
http://duskthemeetingplace.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Day and Night embrace and for a moment there is divine moderation. Wednesday, April 15, 2015. Walking in the Footprints. Our plane landed in Hawaii at 10:30am. By 2pm we were on the beach. We don't believe in wasting time. Not when there's an ocean involved. Avonlea, Grant, and Dave had their snorkel gear on and were off. Rowan was catching surf on the boogie board and Rose was rolling in the waves, a horizontal, aquatic Tasmanian devil. I was on the sand prostrate. I remembered that footprint in the day...

Dusk: Spring comes to Parkdale: By Avonlea
http://duskthemeetingplace.blogspot.com/2015/05/spring-comes-to-parkdale-by-avonlea.html
Day and Night embrace and for a moment there is divine moderation. Wednesday, May 27, 2015. Spring comes to Parkdale: By Avonlea. That is my intro to a long train of pictures from Parkdale (these pictures up above aren't from Parkdale). Note Bald Butte in the window's reflection. We hiked to the top on Sunday for the first time. Dad's tractor which he loves and which we have to rescue every time he uses it (it stops working). One of the many nests we would find. This one is in the open barn. I'm a poet l...

Petunia June: September 2014
http://petuniajune.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 17, 2014. I don't love grocery shopping. It's something, in my opinion, that one does out of necessity. As Mary Poppins would say, "If we must, we must." Well, we must. Earlier this week I had to pop into WinCo to grab a few things. The sun was bright and cheery and I had Aidan at my side. For some reason, this combination caused me to slow down. I didn't feel rushed or anxious, and the chore became an enjoyable outing. I came to my senses and laughed. "I'm sorry! And then the last h...

Dusk: One Day More
http://duskthemeetingplace.blogspot.com/2015/05/one-day-more.html
Day and Night embrace and for a moment there is divine moderation. Saturday, May 9, 2015. I also like One Day More because it is TRUE. Each day, is a story in itself, yet is connected to so many other stories all with a huge over-arching theme. I sang it this morning as I cut the butter into my scones. "Another day, another destiny, on this never-ending road to Calvary." Yes, I am on the road to Calvary, dying to self, living to God. One Day More, another day another destiny.".

Dusk: Amen
http://duskthemeetingplace.blogspot.com/2015/06/amen.html
Day and Night embrace and for a moment there is divine moderation. Tuesday, June 23, 2015. I have my arms around the toilet when she says it. It's cleaning day and my girls are scrubbing with me. Rose complains about this inconvenience to her plans. I reason, "Rose, do you know how gross it would be if we didn't clean the toilets and the floors? She scours the sink and retorts,. I think we are going to think differently about some things in life.". Yes, we probably are. Rosy sleeping with her babies.
