this week's installment of thankful things
- quite the productive time at 90 johnson street
- papa's ham biscuits and rice krispy treats
- reminders that others are looking for the gifts along the way, too
- Phil Wickham's song in my soul
- getting to go to the ballgame with my brother and niece and dad
- very strong folks
- getting to talk to my dad so much
- thoughtful note on my water bottle
- sometimes it's the simple things...like a really good hole puncher for .25 at valley rescue mission
- generous kids...thatcher's gift to eli white, aaron's gift/thoughtfulness of the volleyball to caroline, aaron and emma's handling of the launch giftcard, caroline's offer to swap rooms if that would bless emma
- when there's disappointment or a change of plans, God's always got better (and we've always got His love and presence...and that's enough)
- fun hour at launch for 4 special kiddos (and a peaceful time of catching up on a few things while they jumped and swang and stuff)
- windows that are cleaner than they've been since we've lived here (thanks to the grass ninjas!)(maybe they can also be the "glass ninjas")
- friends doing brave things...fostering...giving 2 weeks notice...retreating...not giving up
- sunday evening on rails to trails
- flowers from nick. how did i ever get such a wonderful husband?!
- the ice cubes that are hollow
- zoe really does ham it up for the camera sometimes
