Happy (snowy) Friday!
It wouldn't be spring on the prairies without another layer of snow catching us after we've already taken the bikes out. Despite the flurries, my neighbour is hauling out his smoker, his little girl in tow ready to play outside. We're eager for warm weather.
Our Awana program wraps up this week, as do my daughter's performances in the school musical—set in the 50's was so fun to watch! (and they had a lot of fun too).
I'm heading out to my grad rehearsal today, the ceremony is tomorrow. I've been reluctant to go, I didn't attend my nursing grad, I figure the paperwork is sufficient. But my husband was more insistent, wanting to commemorate the occasion. There might be some discomfort on my part of being in the center of attention, I'll probably unpack that more as the weekend goes on.
I hope your weekend is great and that you find time to rest and enjoy your people!
Grace & Peace,
Amber
