We had an impromptu tea party this morning. We’d made a pie for Pi + Prejudice Day. But that treat was for dinner. So I opened up a box of Jiffy Blueberry muffins + put the kettle on. By the time we’d cleaned up all the dishes from our baking, the muffins were done. I loaded the tea tray + headed to the table.
I gathered up our St Patrick story books, poured the tea, and started to read. There were crumbs + spilled tea. But there was also fun + wonder + blessed time around the table.
On Pinterest I came across a year’s worth of plans that Sarah created. But even with no plan at all, we had a fine time. We’re learning to make room for the things that nourish us.
