Also, look at these beautiful lettuces!! 🥬 I just learned that we’ve been waiting too long to pick them, which makes them bitter 😓 #shanksteadgardenlessons
The corn is getting tall and so is this little girl! 🌽 we’ve also had our first squash and zucchini harvest.
So much lavender! Sophie put some in her room to help her sleep. 🤣💤
First fruits from our garden! Now, does anyone know how to eat these? 🤣 #welcometotheshankstead
Found this gem at the library this week. What a beautiful book about gardening and perseverance! 🌱 ❤️ also, did you see who wrote it?
Reading this one again. So good. Her reflections on Scripture and work and Christian Community and Liturgy bring dignity, meaning, and delight to even the most mundane of our daily activities (brushing teeth?! Sitting in traffic?!). 🚙 It was helpful for me to renew my mind in areas where I find myself grumbling: folding laundry, picking up toys (again), anything that I do that gets undone almost immediately (ie: all of life with littles). 📚 My favorite phrase from the book was a Latin one: “Ora et Labora”. Work and pray. Not just Martha, not just Mary, but both together, faithfully serving and worshipping at the same time.
