Friday's Favorite Things!

Today is the one year mark of my D and C. The day I became "NOT pregnant". What a terrible, terrible day that was! But God is good. Life is hard, God is good. SO, today I am gonna try something new. Kinda of a weekly "Count Your Blessings". Philippians 4:6-9 says-

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing with prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those thing, which ye have bother learned and received, and heard and seen in me, DO, and the God of peace shall be with you.

And so in my effort to keep my mind on the right, positive things, I have started a list. A list of "my favorite things". You know the song...rain drops on roses and warm woolen mittens...(sorry is that song stuck in your head now??) As a tool for myself, to help me focus on the good. I am gonna try and post my "Friday's Favorite Things" So here are this weeks, "Favorite Things".

-I get to meet my little Sprout one day! Praise the Lord!

-One year from losing my baby, I have a third baby to hold! Praise the Lord!

-How Ruth's smile can melt my heart

-when Ben wraps his arms around me and says he "wubs" me

-how Hannah can be so tough, and yet always need to "wock" with mama

-how Dan can lift my spirits, by simply walking through the door

-a closet floor full of little shoes

-singing deep and wide to Ben EVERY night!

-making breakfast for three hungry blessings every morning

-little arms reaching up for me

-listening to giggles in the bath tub

-laying down in bed at the end of a long day, with my best

friend.
