Here are some thankful-nesses (new word) that we are enjoying! :)
301- HOME SWEET HOME :)
302- Routine
303- Loose trash pickup- serious garage purging just happened :)
304- An amazing summer spent with so many great friends. So many memories to reflect upon.
305- Hannah's 1st official Sunday School class! Being 3 is lots of fun :)
306- Our wedding photo albums. Our anniversary is just a few weeks away...the big #9!
307- Thankful that my Dad has been enjoying his Savior in Heaven, for 5 years (Aug 9th). As I was reading all the sympathy cards that were in a memory book, I really really miss him & can not wait for that trump to sound & the Lord to come!
308- Birthday treats for our kiddos from both sides of the fam - made it like Christmas in August!
309- Thankful for the continual challenge from God to live a life fully dedicated to Him. Words of Hymn 322 come to mind- as we sang it today..."Love so amazing, so divine, demands my life my heart my ALL".
310- Dunkin Donuts. Starting sippin' my iced coffee yesterday a.m. as early as I could! Oh what a nice change from Starbucks & Espresso places :)
Enjoy these lines from a card, that have really spoke to me :)
"Imagine stepping onto a shore & finding it Heaven. Imagine taking hold of a hand & finding it God's hand. Imagine breathing new air & finding it celestial air. Imagine feeling invigorated and finding it immortality. Imagine passing from storm and tempest to an unknown calm. Imagine waking & finding it Home". If we lived each day, like our moments could soon pass here on Earth and our next breath could be the celestial air, I wonder how (my) life would change. Enjoy the day and time that God has granted to you here.
XOXO
