PNG & QUARANTINE

January 30, 2021

Barefoot, I bend down and pick another clothes pin from a tin can. The breeze is warm and swirls around the little, wet dress I clip on the wash line. I smile. Our Lydia adores this yellow dress. Deep breathe. “Lord, you did it’. My hearts whispers to My good God. The last 2 months […]
