God's goodness knows no end

  • wonderful, amazing, beautiful, lovely, incredible few days at the beach in honor of caroline's birthday
  • yaya's thoughtfulness and generosity (especially in the beef jerky department!)
  • zoe's enjoyment of the baby pool!
  • stumbling upon an apology note and realizing that our 10 year old has better communication skills than many of the adults in this world. 
  • surprise socks from shelley
  • sweet sisters at sunset
  • "our default state as Christians should be biblical joy." - Jon Tyson
  • truth, insight, encouragement and wisdom from Voddie Bauchum
  • days that start and end with coffee on the balcony looking at the ocean
  • nick's enjoyment of t-train...and how easy the time has been with her.  
  • getting to see KJ!!
  • emma's loveliness - and her super cool bohemian bandana!
  • clubhouse magazine's pen pal program...and emma's delight in it! 
  • a perfectly timed doughnut delivery that made all the difference (But let's be honest, is there ever a badly timed doughnut delivery?  I think not.)
  • strong thoughts from mike foster
  • the tastiest rice cooker rice yet
  • amusing myself thinking about the solution to the coin shortage (and now the "short changed" jokes that are running through my brain)
  • amazing moon
  • "you are not better or worse.  you are different.  and you belong." -ohhappydani
  • random ordinary moments shared through marco polo
  • getting ready for the new school year
  • getting to share a meal with cedric...learning about married at first sight (and more about the great guy CCC has hired!). 
  • the chance to share the van
  • when God keeps me from saying/texting things that just wouldn't be helpful (i'd love for Him to do that more...or maybe I just need to listen to Him more)
