I just can’t put my finger on one thing to be thankful for today…
- Saturday…no schedule
- Sleeping in
- Our little guy crying out for his mama in the dark of morning
- Our little guy’s head on my shoulder
- Our little guy snuggled in our bed
- Our little guy soothed…asking to go back into his own bed…he’s a “big boy” now
- Unlimited prayer chair time wrapped in the shawl from my dear sisters in Christ next to the blazing fireplace while everyone is still sleeping
- Answered prayer
- God’s great faithfulness
- God has plans for me! Plans not to harm me…plans to prosper me…plans to give me hope and a future!
- Emalynn’s beautiful morning personality (not from me!)
- SUNSHINE!
- Less pain today than yesterday
- Less pain yesterday than the day before!

- Jammie days
- Beautiful golden autumn foliage outside my window

- Maxwell’s creativity with Legos

All these things+so much more=JOY!
