Did you know that she always used lavender scents, candles and such. She truly thought it brought a calmness. Great post of the Duchess also.

He is now a Marine stationed at Camp Pendelton in CA. I remember waiting for the phone call to come that they are allowed to make when the crucible is finished after not speaking to him for almost 3 months. Oh how sweet it was to hear his voice.

Honestly, I don't notice her clothes as much as her smile and how her face lights up. She looks oh so genuine :-)<br /><br />You said something that I don't think I've thought about before when it comes to fire walking - "Let yourself feel the love surrounding you." When your heart is so tender from the battle, it almost feels too tender to trust the love around you. And yet, love is the most healing thing the Lord provides, isn't it?<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Tammy ~@~Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02209066742368197086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-6371501925343723122013-04-05T18:31:55.709-05:002013-04-05T18:31:55.709-05:00Oh I love that quote.

She looks like a woman on a mission; she is so lovely.<br />I like the one with the fur color, too. Mostly because it reminds me of my grandmother. It's quite retro... ;-) I have a picture of grandma in one just like it - circa 1965-ish. Grandma had many coats, too... so stylin'.<br />Thanks for the sentiment at the end, too.

But now I'm totally enamored with her. As for the coats, I love the green one. When she first showed up in I loved it because it was one of the first times when she looked visibly pregnant. <br /><br />I'm so excited for them!Elizabethhttp://www.elizabeth-michelle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-16568396698991281742013-04-05T13:57:04.057-05:002013-04-05T13:57:04.057-05:00I've been loving that white one since I saw it...I've been loving that white one since I saw it yesterday. She finally looks pregnant!!<br /><br />I've always been one to hang my hat on God's redemptive purposes -- that the pain won't be wasted Iin his economy. That has helped me immensely.... That whole idea from II Corinthians and elsewhere that He'll use my pain and brokenness to bring glory to Himself in a way I can't see at the time.... <br /><br />And watching 'beyond the gates' yesterday and thinking once again about those missionary wives who, though devastated at the loss of their husbands, carried out the ministry and mission anyway - and the way The Lord redeemed that brokenness and pain in the healing of that tribe -- it's astonishing. And profound. And something I don't want to miss. <br /><br />Looking for some sunshine this afternoon.... Thanks for having it here in your corner of the Internet, :) I finally threw away my princess Diana scrapbooks, I think -- how I loved her. Scott and I dream that he'll be bishop when he's an old man, and we'll get to have tea at Windsor castle. A fun dream!! :)<br />Love<br />Stephie<br /><br />stephseefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651078191088887064noreply@blogger.com
