In The Simplest Things Misty L Butler

"In the Simplest Things," Misty L. Butler give us another lovely collage of short stories, prayers, poems, and hilarious comments from her young piano students. A tradition she began in her first book, "Finally Spoken: Words of Hope," this second collection also shines brightly with more of Misty's insights from what she calls her simple life."My days are usually not flashy or profound," says Misty, from her country home in southern Kentucky. "They're pretty simple-working with kids, enjoying the countryside, taking photographs, performing music for the community and church. But a simple life contains many surprising gifts. We only have see them." "In the Simplest Things," Misty shows us many that have surprised her. Whether she is letting us in funny moments with her students, laughing at being mistaken for a beauty queen, having a narrow escape at work, or even creating a fashion trend, Misty writes with wit, grace, and wisdom. And through her short prayers and poems, she inspires us with the beauty and blessings she has found in life's ordinary hours, in the simplest things.
