Numbers 31 - 35

So many blessings surrounding me.........


31. the scent of cedar wood



32. Jared sliding in soccer and hockey to "make the save"




33. Jacob head-bunting the soccer ball




34. Blake putting smiles on people's faces when he breaks loose on that fiddle





35. a husband who, in public or in private moments, and despite whether I'm happy or grumpy, always tells me he loves me.

I am so blessed.

Day By Day (#26)


26. Old hymns, filling us with an awareness of how much our Lord is in control, at all times.




Can I hear an "Amen"?

Food (#21-25)


I am so thankful for food.



I'm really a meat-and-potatoes kind of girl, but I love this time of year when corn and beans and tomatoes and cucumbers and many other fruits and vegetables are vastly available.



And, of course, I'm always thankful for #25. Why put that 2-litre back in the fridge, Wannett? Just set it on the table between us. And bring the LARGE glasses, please.




Father, thank you for:






20. corn on the cob






21. tomatoes






23. popcorn



24. peach yogurt






25. and thank you for that fuzzy, biting, burning sensation as PEPSI hits my throat. Ahhhhhh.........






For what I have already received, O Lord, make me truly thankful.
