1 Second chance after second chance after second chance. As a parent, I know how frustrating it is when your words are not heeded, not obeyed time and time again. I praise God that my Parent forgives and forgets as I fumble along, trying to obey His Word but failing again and again in the process.
2 Three healthy children especially in the light of the fact there was a time I wasn't sure I'd have any.
3 The group of women I meet weekly with to study God's Word, lift each other up and show our vulnerability- all for the purpose of drawing nearer to God.
4 Seasons of rest from outdoor work and garden bounty.
5 The privilege of teaching my children at home, working out lessons and behaviors (mine and theirs) side by side.
6 A husband who stays planted by my side through the ebbs and flows of almost 12 years of marriage.
7 Baby legs and hands and cheeks and eye lashes and noises and smiles and snuggles and drool and....
8 The dear friend who so generously passes along her children's clothes so that my children lack nothing.
9 Sunlight as it warms a house kept cool to save energy and nickels.
10 Heart, mind, lungs, muscles and countless other body parts that work brilliantly despite not always being cared for properly.
