Beautiful. I am going to print out the Lenten colouring and do that with you. Flowers are so uplifting and I might need that as I go into this Lent. I am feeling very flat in general but more so about my faith. Pray for me fellow Hearthstone members, please. It is a discipline indeed to be alone in these practices in my home. I am part of a group that will be meeting online each week so that is something that I am looking forward to. The one idea that I have taken from this beautiful post, Kristin, is looking at how my life which flourishes in God, is being hindered by my sins and weaknesses. Thank you!
As always , the post that lifts me most. Many thanks.. I love reading it all esp the Scriptorium incredible art work ,and facts to go with it. I lost my recipe for the pancake ,, the oven pancake you posted I want to make one of those tomorrow.. will look for it. Did you get my first poem.. hope you liked it .. beautiful in Minnesota. iceof lakes gone and ICE in Minneapolis and in Northfield here too .. is metling . Love and rejoicing in and with you . Love,Merri Mc Elderry in Northfield ,Mn
I am ready for Lent and for some pruning and pausing. I have a renewed energy for my book of hours. Your beautiful resources are part of the renewal. I am planning to pull out my colored pencils and watercolors this week.
I feel a bit behind mentally. I've been looking forward to following along with what I can and just learning about the calendar this year, but we've had some big life changes the last few months. So I feel like it has all crept up on me a little. I feel underprepared, but I don't even know what for - like I need to read more (or something) so I can engage better. Trying to ignore that and just do what I can. Ideas welcome though!

Sarah - I am in a similar place. There is a beautiful poem, Ode by Zoe Higgins, that I am returning to these days.
