Chores. Children. Mothering. Schooling. Meeting. Groceries. Dinner. Girls Night Out.
So I will make this brief because my bed is calling my name. Loudly.
But today, I am thankful for a husband who helps with chores and cleans the kitchen while I race out the door for a girls night.
I am thankful for soup in the crockpot and biscuits with apple butter.
I am thankful for girls night out...how I love, love, love my girlfriends. Sitting in a booth at Chilis, snacking on chips and salsa, drinking margaritas, laughing until my sides hurt, catching up on life...surely this is a slice of heaven.
I am thankful for how God takes a lesson he wants to teach us and brings it to our attention in several different ways.
I am thankful for the hope of transformation in the areas of my weakness. I am thankful that God doesn't expect us to be perfect but gives us grace as we overcome little by little.
I am thankful my best friend is in town and that my kids get to have playtime with their best friends, too.
I am thankful that my in-laws are coming to visit, too, and I am thankful that we have such amazing family who loves us all so well.
And I am thankful for my sweet, blond-headed children who are so-not-perfect but who are so-very-perfect in their own way. I want to celebrate them well, and I love their smiles and their hands and their kisses and their sweet little voices and giggles and ideas.
What are you thankful for today?
