Thankful Thursday


Linn began Thankful Thursdays some time ago and I am going to start this also, because, well, it is helpful to think about what I am thankful for and to write it down. As Linn said, thankfulness is a conscious decision. And between homeschooling, and the four under four, I am feeling a little "run over" right now.
I am thankful
1. that I "get to" live in beautiful Colorado1!! It's beauty constantly refreshes me...
2. for the Ford Bronco my husband bought for me last year because he knows how I love my Bronco...
3. for the new friends I am meeting while we blog...
4. for naps (honestly...it's the only time I'm not interrupted ever two minutes.)...
5. For the new things I'm learning about my hobby - photography.
If you want to be apart, please let Linn know...she would love to hear from others I'm sure.

  1. Thank you for sharing your thankfulness. You are wonderful!

    I can only imagine how much you must be missing your son---my day will come too soon.

    Have a very blessed day. We are so enjoying some warmer weather here in CO---I bet you are too.

  2. I'm thankful for this blog that reminds us to be thankful!

    I am thankful for good friends, that God gave to me (I feel very special)

    I am thankful for Shonni! :c)

    I love the picture of your two boys... very sweet... and it is so hard to let go isn't it? Kind of a bittersweet experience. Luckily, God gave him very faithful and loving parents to encourage him AND support him... Lucky you Jace!!

    PS: Tell Kalyn that I miss hearing from her!!

  4. Shonni,
    After your sweet comment yesterday, I had to tell you that in the night E & E woke up. I was able to go back to sleep from about 3ish..so I was up praying and I was praying for grace and strength for you. It is the hardest job in the world to be a mama to demanding little ones (we could go for coffee and talk over being moms of many, don't ya' think?)....anyway, add homeschooling to the mix and a boatload of other kids.....yes, you have one very tough job! But I want to thank you on behalf of the orphans of the world for your constant voice and testimony that your family is...that all orphans are worthy of - and that although difficult, there is such joy! I know you know all that, but I just wanted to be your cheerleader today! =)

    And I am already working on next weeks post about Thankful Thursday and will be linking your blog to mine...thank you for participating! You rock sister!

    You are loved! xo
    Linny
