sleeping kids
quiet house
sunshine
cool air
abundant growth
having a little animal-baby that forces me out-of-doors often into God's wonderland
my son growing in knowledge, maturity and stature
my girl and the wonderful girlish mystery about her
dirty feet... the evidence of good and adventurous play
being and feeling content
being able to try again
having my love hold my hand unexpectedly
watching him fall in love with a puppy
excitement about a new school year
a good sermon
an island adventure awaiting us
having dinner out alone with my son
knowing it meant a lot to him that we did that
the peace of my home
the health of my children, husband and me
watching my daughter run across the church to embrace her old Sunday School teacher during welcome time
knowing that woman sowed into her life with sincerity, love and truth
that I could sit here all day and write things like this
that I get to move on from here
Sounds wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWish I could join you in a cool afternoon walk with animal-baby...
I look forward to the day when the FL feet join the OR feet and there are again 8 dirty feet- 'evidence of good and adventurous play'
Being and feeling content- good stuff.
Thank you for sharing your gifts; I enjoy the glimpse into your days :} Much love & gratitude.
lovely list.

I love the "having my love hold my hand unexpectedly"... those precious breathe taking moments!
ReplyDeleteI too give great praise for a quiet home and sleeping children. I've never met a parent who doesn't see those times as blessings too.
I love Ann's communities... they are just so much fun. I enjoy meeting all you thankful people out there! :) Your list sounded kinda like mine today, too...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post...so glad our blogs found each other!

Everly
