Thankful Thursday

Today I am thankful:

- that we sang 2 of my most very favorite hymns in church on Sunday (Be Still My Soul and All Creatures of Our God and King). I needed that. And my heart felt full.

- that Abigail is getting so good at teaching herself piano and making up her own songs. It is so fun to hear (even though sometimes she does this at the expense of other things she is supposed to be doing). ;)

- that Zac has Veteran's Day off of work! wohoo!

- that Abigail was able to go see The Nutcracker ballet with her youth group. Just so glad she had that opportunity, even though she came home with a heart aching to dance in it.

- thankful for Zac's Healthy Lifestyles program at work where we get PAID CASH for exercising, eating fruits and vegetables, and doing monthly self-exams. It's even worth getting my body fat tested once a year (as required at the yearly assessment -ugh). Money. I can always use it.

- for the times when Samuel and Elisabeth play "family" sweetly together.

- for a washing machine and fresh warm clean smelling clothes.

- for happy exciting things happening in the lives of family members

- that Abigail is halfway through with her orthodontic treatment (and that we had the means to get her the braces she needed).

- that Isaac is responsible and so caring for his new pet.

- that Samuel is doing so well in school this year!

- and for even thinking about the possibility of making Gingerbread Pumpkin Bars today.;) yummm.


What are you thankful for this week?
