A "Net for Catching Days" in the middle November

"How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing. A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days. It is a scaffolding on which a worker can stand and labor...a mock-up of reason and order...it is a peace and haven set into the wreck of time; it is a lifeboat on which you find yourself, decades later, still living." ~Annie Dillard


Our rhythms these days include cheering on our good friend Evan as he storms the basketball court and takes cello lessons each week.


Katherine and several other orchestra students performed with the AYSO for a fabulous concert.


I discovered this classic, "Abide in Christ" by Andrew Murray, and listened while running errands. Highly recommend this book!
 

In February I played the cello for a wedding, and now the couple is expecting a sweet little girl. So fun to be a part of their community and attend a baby shower for Becca and Luke.


The beautiful sunrise bike rides transformed into foggy, dismal bike rides. But they hold their own kind of beauty.
