thankful thursday

It's been a looong time since I've posted a Thankful Thursday, but I was reminded of it this week. My dear husband is teaching a Sunday morning adult Bible class based on the book, Good and Beautiful God: Falling in Love with the God Jesus Knows. Every few weeks, we are given a new soul training exercise to work on as we strive to understand God through the Jesus narrative. Previous exercises have included getting more sleep and taking time to be quiet. This week's assignment was to start a running list of things for which we're thankful, so it seems like the perfect time to resurrect this old blog series. Some of the things are obvious, some are not. Some are more important than others, and I list them in no particular order. Remembering to be thankful each day is an important discipline that keeps me grounded. So here's what I've got so far.

healthy baby. supportive husband. conversation partner. peanut butter/banana sandwiches. daily hot showers. changing seasons. internet. loving church family. intergenerational wednesday night class. laughter. tears. honesty. balance. carson's smile. digital camera. getting to see my parents tomorrow. god's creativity. thoughtful budgeting. hand-me-downs. peace.
