With all that’s happening around us, I thought it would be good to sit and think about all the things I’m thankful for this week.
1. Technology. We are so fortunate for the technology we have during this time. The kids are still able to chat with their teachers and classmates, there are countless educational (and let’s face it- noneducational) apps and websites for them to use, we can easily stay in touch with family and friends, and I can actually get a few things done in peace here and there. 2. Sunshine. We had so many cold, cloudy days in a row- which isn’t great for my morale. I NEED SUNSHINE Y’ALL. And we finally got it this week. Praise.3. Spring. The grass has started turning green, I can see little buds on the trees, and the birds are chirping away. The days are longer, the temperatures are rising, and the air is fresh. Freedom is coming. 4. Quiet mornings. Without that crazy school morning rush, I’ve been enjoying quiet, calm, peaceful mornings each day. And let me tell you- it’s wonderful. Especially because the rest of the day is filled with constant chatter from four little people. So give me all the quiet mornings. Please.5. A basement with a door. It’s the little things, my friends. But I’ve never been more thankful for this space and this door than I have in these past few weeks. She’s a lifesaver.
Your turn! What are you thankful for today?

Love this!! I’ve been so inspired by your perspective during all of this craziness. Today I’m grateful for being kept healthy, keeping in touch through technology, being able to pray to our God who is in full control, and also – all the spring vibes – it makes me the happiest 😍.

What in the world with my caps and no caps😜

For some reason, it only shows capital letters when you’re typing on here….so you never really know if your letters will be upper case or lower case. It’s like a fun little game. That I don’t know how to fix.
