Well, I had encouraged the parents of my kids at church (as well as myself) to record 10 blessings every day of the month of November - to do our best to combat the short days and many gray ones at that (although we haven't seen them yet!). So yeah, & here I sit - not having written down
ANY! So, I'm going to hop to it. Here goes for November 1 & 2...
- God the Father, Christ His Son, & the Holy Spirit (they count as one, since they are three-in-one)
- Mom -I'm listing her first, since she carried me around for nine months & has, therefore, known me the longest :)
- Dad - Gets to be second, since he was rather involved in my creation :)
- Tam - Third, simply because she's my sister, has put up with me forever, & is my best friend of ALL TIME!
- Grandma Ev - My spiritual mentor & biggest cheerleader. I get through life because of her love & prayers.
- Grandma Joan - My former roommate & forever friend. She brings a smile to my face & to my heart.
- My entire extended family - I'm lumping them all together, since I could easily take up most of the days if I were to list everyone individually. I gotta be a LITTLE bit creative!
- Trunk-or-Treat - it was HUGE on Friday night & worth every ounce of blood, sweat & tears! What a franktastic event it was - I know we reached out to more than ever before!
- Saturdays - because they are generally "days off"!
K, those were the first 10 blessings. Now for the next 10...
- My job - I get to plan stuff for kids & think of fun ways to share the love of Jesus with them. Could there be anything better to do? :)
- Flamingos!
- The color pink - I just want to smile whenever I think pink or see it ;)
- Sunrises
- Sunsets
- Warm November days - surprise!
- Leg & foot rubs at the end of the day
- Extreme Makeover Home Edition
- Forgiveness & freedom in Christ
- Raking leaves in 60 degree weather - how often does THAT happen in MN?
And for the rest of the month, the blessings will continue to be blogged!
