March 3

The Ladies' Ministry at church dropped off a basket yesterday that included a cute little teapot, teacup, and saucer; an assortment of teas; a rose; some little treats; and a journal. A blessing basket, of sorts. Abby saw it, and immediately asked if we were having a tea party, so tonight, just before she headed off to bed, we had one.

She kept telling me that she didn't really know how to behave during a tea party, and I kept telling her it was fine and that I'm not exactly an old pro myself. So we drank our tea and ate our cookies and petit fours. And beyond that, we had girl-time. So tonight, I'm thankful that these lovely ladies --while spreading the love of Jesus to me-- created a reason for me to have some girl time with my favorite girl.
