time with the taylors...especially when all the hidden tricks come out
the unity concert. the tears. the laughter. watching it with my best friend.
Caroline's desire (and the opportunities) to hang around older, wiser, Jesus-Loving ladies
beautiful words...prayer for my year (and the use of the word "wee" in the post) (and finding the song)
kingdom kid volunteers
"I'm leaving you well and whole...I'm giving you peace." John 14:27
the edfeldts' faithfulness, dedication and determination to love well
day trip to warrenton
when at the cabin...
when real conversations happen in the fishbowl (can I still call it the fish bowl??)
kids getting much needed sleep
Emma realizing that she is feeling overwhelmed (I'm not thankful that she feels overwhelmed...but I'm really really thankful that she's learning to put words to her feelings and can recognize what she's feeling and we can learn strategies for dealing with things)
