SATURDAY

: the seventh day of the week 

There's a lot to love about Saturday...

Waking up to the sound of tiny feet climbing up the stairs and into my bed
Drinking a cup of coffee while reading the Daily Office


Pancakes
Fried Eggs
Hashbrowns
Maple Sausage
Strawberries
Prepared in a lovely, complete new kitchen
With the windows thrown open to let in the fall air
Eaten together
In no rush
With nowhere to go (not soccer, not ballet, not school)


Anticipating all of the good things still to come on this seventh day


A long bath
A good book
A game or two together
A slow morning
Lunch with friends
The season's first football game

A day together.  The blessing that is Saturday.

Sounds lovely. Not at all what our Saturday was like, but I'm glad that yours was lovely!
