This year’s Christmas mouse scene in the library is going to be Narnia-themed!

The little girls were playing in my office this morning. They’re so sweet. They made cute little peg dolls. #childrenofjoy

Some people have asked me how my recovery from long Covid is going. I’m so much more well, glory to God! The thing that is most troubling me is that Covid gave me arthritis in most of my joints, including as you can see a bit from these photos, my fingers. My next phase of recovery will involve getting in to see a rheumatologist. I’m getting along at a slower pace and lots of Epsom salt soaks, but I would appreciate your prayers. Thank you, friends! Last two photos are comparing my normal left pinky and arthritic right pinky.

Bazzy’s starting to get over his cold. He had his Glitter Force appointment this morning (Netflix is only on parental iPads, and kids can see certain shows by appointment). I love this boy’s laughter! He also tried on the blue blocker glasses and looked just like his daddy! #childrenofjoy

The fig tree thinks it’s time for autumn, anyway.

My yearly order of candles came in! I ordered Advent candles for the first time in years, since Western Rite Orthies have a shorter Advent. I’m so happy about the little lavender-frankincense travel tins. They’re a big part of winter prep here. It was 90F today, but it’s still time to prepare. I love candle season!

I just tried on my dress for our eventual family photo! I got matching dresses for the girls and me and coordinating sweaters for the guys.

Three of the #childrenofjoy picked up a sniffle, so I made the little girls some little tucked-in tents for a gentle, separated quiet time today.

Time travel is the only plausible answer. #childrenofjoy
