<i>{photo by Emma Grace}</i></div>
<i>this man is God's grace to me.</i><br />
this man balances me, encourages me, reminds me to laugh at myself and to dream big.<br />
this man loves order, hates clutter, and yet turns a blind eye to my "artistic messes".<br />
this man is my sounding board.<br />
this man shows me grace when i deserve it least and when I need it most {which is why it's called "grace", right?}.<br />
this man loves quietly, constantly, sacrificially.<br />
this man encourages when needed and takes pride in my successes as if they were his own.<br />
this man, he is not perfect. but he is perfect for me.<br />
<i>this man is God's grace to me</i>.<br />

Peanut butter smeared onto a warm brownie. Mhmm. Yummm.<br />
<br />
Not really a recipe at all, but soooo good!<br />
(warning - they can be a bit addicting. As in, you realize that you just ate a quarter of the pan by yourself type of addicting)<br />

When she has nightmares I've been comforting her by praying for His peace to surround her and for Him to show her his love.<br />
<br />
And tonight, Emma Grace has a fever.<br />
<br />
She was murmuring in her sleep and then called for me. I ran in, half expecting her to be throwing up (since we just went through a bought of it). She was tossing around and, when she saw me coming, reached out her hand and said, "Mama, pray."<br />
<br />
Hearing her ask broke my heart and also brought joy - she is so miserable, and there is nothing I can do for her (she's already had her dose of Tylenol for the night). But she knows - in some toddler way - that God can fix it, God cares, and Mama needed to talk to Him again. She is only just turned three and <i>she knows</i>.<br />
<br />
So God, Heavenly Father, You are the Healer and our Comfort. Comfort our baby tonight as You are healing her miserable little body, give her the sweet and deep sleep that she needs tonight.

<br />
I just clipped 40 tiny nails: 20 fingers and 20 toes, and 2 chubby, dimpled toddlers worth.<br />
As I was clipping I kept thinking "these fingers and toes will never be this small and sweet again, not even tomorrow. Em and Ian are shooting up like weeds and I need to savor them."<br />
<br />
So, once we were finished I sat them next to each other on the couch (even though they were ready to dash off and play) and took a few photos of those fingers and toes.<br />
<br />
And then they hopped down and got back to their playing. <br />

The other night I made one of my favorite simple desserts - an apple tarte tatin - and it was so simple that I didn't use a recipe. I made it once from Williams-Sonoma's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Tart-Williams-Sonoma-Collection-Carolyn-Beth/dp/0743243161/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1320448808&sr=8-2"><i>Pie and Tart</i></a>, and have been making a version of it every so often from memory. And they've all been<i> really</i> good. (and really simple to make - always a good thing : D)<br />
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;">

To make our version, you start with a few apples (2-4, depending on their size) which you slice thinly. I like to leave the skins on, but I think if you wanted to make an authentic apple tarte tatin you would need to take them off.<br />
Then you sprinkle about 1 cup of sugar evenly on the bottom of an oven-proof skittle/frying pan. Dot that with 4 tablespoons of butter and then arrange the apples on top. The round part (outside) of the apples should be facing the bottom of the pan - you will eventually turn the entire thing upside-down and the bottom will become the top.<br />
Then you top the entire thing with a piece of pie dough (or puff pastry - both are absolutely delicious options) and tuck the edges down.<br />
<br />
Bake it in a 375 degree oven for about an hour or until the apples are tender when you poke it with a fork.<br />
Let it rest for about 5 minutes and then place your serving plate on the skillet and (very quickly and carefully) flip the tatin upside-down onto your plate. <br />
