Giving thanks with the Gratitude Community for His unending gifts...
...hearing "Goodnight Mom"...
...the Motivated Moms app and how the boys are motivated too with their assigned tasks...
...Wes at the piano after we put the boys to bed playing and singing Our God is Able...
...backyard soccer...
...an evening walk...
...watching Micaiah at his drum lesson...
...Wes going after Excedrin for me before work in the morning...
...puddlejumpers...
...our painted lady caterpillars arriving...
...Joshua's conversation at bedtime...
"Did you pray for a boy named Joshua?
Yes.
And then God made me?
Yes He did. And what do you think he said when he made you?
You will be called Joshua and you will have a Mommy and Daddy who love you."
...catching up with a friend at the pool while the boys did "crazy jumps"...
...how our 2 year old keeps me humble (as if a mother of four boys needs any more humility)...
...painted lady caterpillars all in their chrysalides...
...enjoying the fireworks at RVR...
...playing a game with Joshua and his comment...
"It's a date...except we're not eating. Dating is for eating with a son and a mom." (I hope he keeps thinking like this for a while)!
...our backyard digging site...
...clarity of vision...
...beautiful backyard hydrangeas...
...truth I needed to hear in Streams in the Desert...
"Knowing that God invites us to command Him to act reveals a surprising change in our normal relationship...what a distinction there is between this attitude and the hesitancy and uncertainty of our prayers of unbelief...think how often Jesus, during His earthly ministry, put others in a position to command Him. As Jesus and his disciples were leaving Jericho, Jesus stopped and responded to two blind men who had called out to Him. ' What do you want me to do for you?'"
...the crib that held each of these boys for the last decade...
