My Lent Project: Day 6


Instead of giving UP something for Lent, I’m giving THANKS for the many blessings of life.  Here’s what I’m feeling incredibly thankful for today . . .



A lost little girl, found.


Knowing my children are safely asleep in their beds.


A sweet get well gift from a wonderful friend.


Hairbrushes.


Toothpaste.


Workout clothes and running shoes.


Tony Horton's Total Body workout.


An awesome teacher for my daughter.


A capable 8 year-old who is thriving in second grade.


The incredible moms I've met at my children's school.


Kelly Doran's beautiful paintings in my kitchen.


Listening to my daughter laughing with her friend.


Swings.


Good news.


Finding the perfect dining room chairs on Craigslist.


Running into one of my favorite people at the ball field.


Watching my son play first base.


Babies.


Hearing someone talk about God working in her life.


Jesus, who showed us how to love our neighbors.
