Yep... I realized this morning that I never posted anything yesterday. But that's not to say that I wasn't thankful for a great many things throughout the day. So here's to catching up :)
Day 5 - I am thankful for my home.
Six years ago, we purchased our house just after getting married. It has four bedrooms split between two floors. It's a decent sized house, but it's not huge. Tonight, as I was rocking J to sleep (which he just woke up from...) I looked out his bedroom, through the hallway and into the living room where I could see just a little of the leaf swag over the doorway and the window curtain on the far wall. I am thankful for a place to call home, a place to decorate, to make comfy cozy for our family. I'm not always thankful to have to clean it, but I would rather have it that way than not have a place at all :)
Day 4 - I am thankful for a group of women at church to sing with.
Yesterday I was having a rough day, struggling with the selfishness and self pity that really was mislabled and should be called results from laziness around the house and selfishness in wanting to do my own thing. So I wasn't in the best mood when headed to Ladies Praise practice. And then when I arrive, my spirits were immediately raised as I sat down next to a friend and joined in on the song. I sing 2nd soprano and it just so happened that the other one who sings the same part wasn't able to be there. It was so nice to add my voice to the others and hear how it helped to complete the tune. I hope this isn't coming across as anything more than me just enjoying singing and a group with whom I am able to do this. I love making a joyful noise, especially when it is for God.
Day 3 - Today I am thankful for babies.
Day 2 - I am thankful for a husband who is willing to pick up hours a work!
Day 1 - I am thankful for a job I enjoy doing.
