Friday Five

I'm trying something new. I love sharing things that I've found with you, so I thought I would start sharing them here more regularly. So we're gonna try something called the "Friday Five" where every Friday I'll share five things that I've stumbled upon or enjoyed that week. For this week's Friday Five...

1. Vintage Faux Leather Binder

I'm a big fan of old vintage looking books and journals, so when I stumbled upon this binder on Amazon, I was tickled and tempted to buy twenty. But I used self control and only bought one... for now. 

2. Frozen 2 Soundtrack

Ever since going to see Frozen II in theaters with a friend, I've had the soundtrack stuck in my head. Sometimes I wake up in the morning with "Into the Unknown" reverberating through my head. Thea also enjoys listening to it in the morning. I'm curious to see if she remembers listening to it regularly when she's older. 

3. The Best Holiday Music Library Ever

If you're looking for a curated list of Christmas music organized based off of mood and feel, Kendra Adachi (aka The Lazy Genius) created a compilation of Christmas music playlists for your enjoyment. 

4. Say Short Prayers

As a regular listener of Emily P. Freeman's The Next Right Thing Podcast, I regularly find her podcasts helpful and thoughtful. This one in particular encouraged me as a new mom. My prayers don't need to be elaborate. They can be short, and Jesus still listens and answers. Maybe you need to be reminded of that too. 

5. Keep a Quiet Heart

I've been in the middle of reading this book by Elizabeth Elliott for two years, and I just started reading it more regularly during Thea's first nap in the morning. She's been taking short morning naps, so I need a book with short chapters so that I don't feel confused when I need to stop mid-chapter. She offers a lot of great thoughts in this book, and it's been encouraging for my relationship with God as I navigate the fullness of life that is new motherhood. 

What are some of your recent finds? I'd love to know.
