Today (and yesterday) I am thankful for cuddles in my bed with my 4 year old daughter. Right now I am thankful for both my in-laws, who are taking all of my kids out to dinner tonight, and my husband, who is taking me out to dinner…. somewhere else!
Today I am thankful for books: real, solid, hold them in your hands, books. Not that I don’t appreciate technology, but I don’t think I’ll ever be able to enjoy reading from an e-reader the same way that I do a book. This year I’ve set a goal of reading 52 books in 52 weeks. …
Today I am grateful for tiny baby wiggles. I never tire of feeling a baby move. (OK, well maybe sometimes in the middle of the night.) But it is so reassuring to know that my unborn little one is safe and well.
Well, here I am doing 2 days at once again. I did spend time yesterday thinking about what I was going to post, but I never did post it. I’m thankful first to God for my salvation. I take it for granted way too often. It is simply incredible to think that God would reach …
Today was a day I’d been looking forward to. It was our annual Ladies Soup Luncheon at church. This year I got to decorate for the event (along with another lady), and we had a great time doing it. It was a small event, the church is small anyway, but there were a lot of …

Since I wrote a review on a book about hospitality, I think it’s only fitting that today I am thankful for my home. Although I sometimes wish we had more space, I am thankful that I don’t have more space to clean. I love the large bedrooms for the kids, especially since we only have …
When I saw the title of this book, it immediately sounded like something I needed to read. I want to have people over, but something always seems to get in my way. We’re too busy. We don’t have enough room. We can’t afford it. My house isn’t nice enough. You may have used some of …
Today I am thankful for a husband that not only wants to spend time with me, but has time to spend with me this evening. So I’d better go 🙂
Brenda at Garden of Learning is hosting a gratitude challenge for the month of November. I’ve participated in a similar challenge for the past couple of Novembers. I find it to be a great exercise to take the time to remember some things I’m thankful for, so I’ll do my best to post daily. My …
