Thankful Thursday!

Once again, God causes me to take pause and be thankful for many things this week.  Here are some of the things that come to mind as I ponder....
  • For a husband that loves his girls so much he left us post-it notes around the house reminding us, while he traveled this week.
  • For Ainsley's willingness to practice her piano, do her school work, and do a few extra things this week without being asked.  
  • For the laughter I hear in this house from two very special girls!
  • For my special friend Lisa who is the most supportive friend you could ever ask for at any distance. 
  • For a great reason to re-connect with my friend Jill in CA this week.  Thanks Jill for your great advice!
  • For BSF and the way it challenges me to think outside my comfort zone!
  • For Baby Madison's amazing progress and Julie's patience and endurance!
  • For Ruby's new playmates, and potential babysitting jobs for Ainsley someday!  :)
  • For the Girl Scout Cookies I am picking up to distribute on Friday!!
  • For my brother Mark who celebrated a birthday yesterday!
  • For another healthy year for my Dad who turns 81 next week!!!!
  • For a very special anniversary coming up for our family on March 5th!
I hope you have had a week filled with laughter & blessings too!

You do have so much to be thankful for. I just did my first Thankful Thursday post because I needed the reminder of how blessed I am~

It was nice to talk to you this week and thanks for the info on your friend. I probably won't travel with her, but I will love following along on their journey while I wait for mine~

Thanks for the sweet comment on MAW. I love your blog and Ruby is growing so much. I can't believe it's almost been a year since Ruby came home!!!! We found out we will be traveling on March 12-26. Please keep us in your prayers!

So many blessings, so happy about your upcoming anniversary and all the beautiful things the Lord has provided. Your family is very simply, exquisite - always a pleasure to visit and share.
