We had my daughter's kindergarten open house last night which consumed my thoughts all day and evening, so thankful thursday was forgotten :( But let's do a belated one because I could use a little thankfulness today...
I am thankful for...
29. the opportunity for Sydney to put a face to her teacher's name, that she's excited and liked her teacher, and that she got to meet her locker buddy on the playground after open house :)
30. knowing, that even in the midst of my anxiety over Syd going to school, that God is GOOD, that He goes WITH her, that He LOVES her and He will walk with me through this new stage of parenting
31. awesome weather to do fun things outside this week (including a super fun day at the zoo!)
32. Josh's job. Even though it's a bit unpredictable and gives him a good amount of frustration...I'm thankful that he has it, that it provides opportunity for a future in the company, and that he has already been recognized and appreciated for his hard work.
33. cool evenings...I don't want to wish summer away but I LOVE fall and cool evenings are just a sign of its impending arrival!!
34. God's provision....I may have said it here before it but it blows me away where we are now compared to a year ago. Don't get me wrong...we are not any kind of wealthy by any stretch, but we are in a much better place with much less anxiety over how the next bill will get paid. God has provided our every need when we had little and now is providing "wants" as we have a bit more. I'm so thankful for His provision and KNOW that all I have belongs to Him!
35. answered prayers!! I have had the great privilege to pray for people I love and have seen two awesome answers to prayer this week. So thankful to be allowed a peak at what God is doing in other's hearts and lives!
36. Miles' new found communication skills. In the last month, Miles has grown leaps and bounds in his ability to understand us and respond using words. I LOVE the toddler stage and this has been SO fun!
37. the love my kids have for each other. I hope they always love each other this much :)
38. chocolate that tastes like coffee...I mean seriously that's just ridiculously awesome.
39. saving money! we were able to cut down our cable bill this week and I'm always saving with my awesome couponing skills ;)
40. flexible days...now I say this knowing that they are soon to be a thing of the past (once school starts) but for today I am thankful that we can go with the flow :)
41. the days I don't have laundry to fold :)
"Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Psalm 100:4-5
