There is this hike in Hawaii that has countless steps. And although I’ve never personally taken that hike, I have wondered about all those steps as I’ve seen them hanging somewhat precariously peeking out from the lush greenery-laden volcanic mountains you can see from the freeway. I’ve thought about how we have so many of…
A couple Sundays ago we had a lesson at church that I loved. We talked about this scripture from Matthew 11:29: “Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is…
I’ve slacked off on my “Sunday ponderings” lately. Sometimes I hesitate to share personal spiritual things. But for some reason I feel like I really should share this one. So here we go. Last week our whole family was here for church. I got someone to sub for me teaching primary so I could be…
I am always mesmerized by leaves. The dried up crunchy ones that are adorning our neighborhood right now (more on those back HERE) to the vibrant lush ones we saw in Ecuador. So I’m sharing some of the pictures I took. I think these fit in perfectly to Sunday pondering because whenever I examine a…
This week on the spur of the moment I invited the women I visit teach (in our women’s group in our church we are assigned certain women to visit and look out for each month), and my visiting teaching partner (the woman I make those visits with) over for a simple little brunch at our…

During our road trip a few weeks ago, the girls and I had a long driving day one of the Sundays. We had looked up a church en route to where we were going that we planned to attend, but when we got there, all bundled up in kind of funny make-shift Sunday “travel” clothes,…
There are lots of things that Eyres are into. Some weird, some crazy, and some velvety good. One of them is “spiritual creation.” My Dad has always been a “spiritual creator” (happy bday yesterday, Dad!). He is always spilling out with goals and dreams and plans and he has an uncanny way of making them…
I’m really trying to do these “Sunday Ponderings” on Sundays here and there. It may only happen once a month, but I love having a place to write the more spiritual things jumbled up with everything else on my mind. I’ve been working hard on “self-discipline” lately, and one of the top things I’m trying…
