Gifts-My Grateful Journal



Starting today, I decided I am going to be using this blog as a grateful journal. I want to start focusing on all the gifts He gives me so I can remember how He is working in my life!

"I will praise God's name in song
and glorify him with thanksgiving." (Psalm 69:30)

Thank you, God for...

1). Last week John was finally accepted into the law school he wanted. He'll be moving to Charlotte in less than a month.
2). Meghan is enjoying her new church and shares her favorite worship music with me.
3). Friends recovering from surgery.
4). I'm grateful for affordable long distance phone calls.
5). My mom is moving back to our hometown. She'll be moving into her new place in Fenton on July 8th.
6). Concerts in the park with friends.
7). A new church experience today.
8). Long bike rides.
9). The best neighbors in the whole wide world.
10). Holding a two month old baby this week. There is nothing like it.
11). I am grateful for a relaxing drive around Lake Fenton with my sister, brother-in-law and mom and dreaming about owning a cottage one day.
12). Family parties.
13). My mother-in-law.
14). How responsible my kids have become.
-Playing "PIG" with John.
15). A New York strip steak, twice-baked potato and caesar salad.
