gardenias. and how much the men in my life love the way they smell.

"God's best to you! Christ's blessings on you." - Philemon 1:3
sweet girls and their international friendship
a week that was already cleared out so that it was easy to get in the car and go to warrenton
small town/FBC warrenton love and support. goodness.
beautiful flowers that are representing my mama. she is no longer suffering. no more medicine. no more pain. no more misery. happy. healthy. whole. fully ALIVE with jesus. i am grateful.
friends of my dad's who drive 12+ hours to be with him, fry some fish and sit at his table
siblings that i love to be with.
temporary butterfly tattoos...the friend that found them, the sister that is wearing them with me, the mama that always talked about wanting a butterfly tattoo.
the chance to stay in warrenton a few extra days with my dad
"...that people recognize Christ in all of it..." philemon 1:6 (?) (the msg doesn't always clearly mark the verses!)
a mug from my mama's cabinet that's about as old as i am that rings true (especially in regards to thankful thursday)(and a sister that picked it out for me)
brandon's ability to speak life and truth and honor my mama...a fantastic mixture of humor and solemn - all sacred. also thankful for the conversation he facilitated with my siblings. well done, pastor man.
morning runs through the woods...and through the streets of warrenton.
my incredible husband. he's so talented and kind and awesome and wonderful. i loved that he was a part of my mama's funeral. he speaks. he sings. he cares. he loves. and he looks suh-weet in a suit.
