Thankful Thursday

It is 6:58 am, and I have pages of lists on my table waiting to be tackled.

But first, I just wanted to hop onto the blog to give a moment to Thankful Thursday.

There are always so many things to be thankful for, but this morning, I am particularly thankful for the following:

- waffles for breakfast with my kids
- how my boys giggle when they hear how big the number is to a question like this, "Mommy, how many minutes are in 900 hours??"  They are amused by the smallest of things.  I love this about them.
- that two dear women from our small group babysat our children so Zach and I could go to a meeting at church last night
- that meeting at church - so rich and good and encouraging (SO thankful for our church and its authenticity)
- an unexpected hike through the woods with my hubby before this meeting (we can't remember the last time we had a walk, just the two of us, without kids.  I mean, we love walking with our kids, but this was lovely.)
- how thrilled my boys were to get their math curriculum in the mail for the fall...that is the first thing I found when I got up this morning: the boys in their jammies, pouring over their new books on the couch.  I am soaking up their love for learning!
- the anticipation of our camping trip this weekend with one of our favorite families (for a combined 10 kids and four adults!) .... can't wait!
- for summer and a fun schedule for the kids and me, including a trip to the splashpad and park yesterday with a bunch of other mamas that I love

Sammy's Thankful List...
- that we went to Veteran Acres
- that we had a picnic with Nana in the shade
- that we went to Savannah and Dawson's house
- that Daddy had a safe flight to Washington D.C. and a safe flight back
- that we got to make a fort and that we made a fort out of Trio blocks and that we hid the Ninjago book two times
- that God let us watch Faith Builders

Micah's Thankful List...
- that we have a house to live in and food to eat
- knowledge
- memory and brains
- that we have neighbors and friends and family
- that we live in a safe country
- that we get to do lots of fun things every single day
- that we get to have a computer to play awesome games and have so much fun
- for people who invent the games and invent the computer
- for electrical stuff, like phones and cars
- that we don't have snakes in our house
- that we have lots of supplies to live
- for our hearts

Now, off to get ready for the day so we can pack for our camping trip!

An early Happy Weekend to you all!
