When Day Ends...

and evening falls...
 the kitchen is cleaned up from suppertime...
and I wander outside

making sure the chickens are safely tucked inside the coop before securing their door

and kicking a few balls across the yard for the dogs to chase...

while the last glow of the sunset is fading into a velvet darkness...

and twilight quietly tiptoes in

and, it is time to call on the quiet of the evening...

as the tree frogs and crickets begin to sing to one another

through the curtain of the night

so now, the promise of a warm shower begins to slowly call to me...

after a day of work and duties finished

and once we two have shared some hot cocoa tea...

and put in a little reading...

the lull of dreamy sleep beckons from the comfort of bed

If the Lord is willing...

I shall be back after the new year has started

and I will post on why we homestead

May the Lord shine His grace on you and turn your eyes towards Him.
