Today I'm thankful for so many blessings in my life....
- discovering a new snack, hummus with spinach and pita chips.... yum!
- heart to heart talk with my teen son
- laughing with my children as I chase them around the house
- a vehicle that gets me where I need to be
- a husband who loves me
- teaching and talking with my son, applying scripture to his life
- sunshine that peeks out from behind the clouds
- pushing my daughter on the swings and hearing her laughter
- learning some new skills with a camera
- finding a hide-out for the kids to play in (where the blackberry bushes create little "rooms" underneath them)
- gazing at the stars while I pet the cat
- wondering if our dog is going to have puppies
- knowing that I can take my concerns to God and He hears and answers
- little broccoli and lettuce sprouts basking in the sunlight
- having money to get groceries to feed my family (even though I can't stand grocery shopping!)
- having tax return money to be able to pay off a couple of bills
- a warm bed
- a homemade dinner of vegetable beef soup and wheat bread
God is so good!
He most certainly is and all the time! What a lot you have to be thankful for and I'm bettin' that list doesn't even begin to scratch the surface. Never can my eyes look about me that I do not see more blessings or reminders of blessings than I can possible list. My heart bursts.
