almost forgot...

with so may of the normal "markers" of my week gone/cancelled/postponed, i kind of almost forgot it was thursday!  but, alas, even in the midst of pandemic and national crisis, the thankful list must go on!!  it's true - there is always, always, always something to be thankful for (and in this case, plenty of "somethings").  keep looking for the gifts...they are there.  

• cash girls (including yaya!) group hug
• caroline's cute shopping trip finds
• fun games (especially quirkle and azul right now)

• strong worship songs for the week:
• housefires' "lift you high"
• passion's "there's nothing our God can't do"

• community group zoom calls
• guys and gals gathered in honor of eli's birthday

• "better"...it's such a beautiful word
• emma's enjoyment of the sand pile that the brick guys left
• "tea thyme" at CCC (way to go yaya!)(i apologize for my lack of hat)

• more and more people in columbus being trained to be foster care advocates in their churches
• 10:02 alarm - the hope and belief that 1002 churches will be planted in the coming years
• encouragement, good reminders and sweet IG posts:
