Gratitude is a funny little thing. It doesn’t take much to say thank you. I only had to open my eyes to the life happening around me. This is life. All piled up into almost 1,000 things that are all worth saying thank you over. He gives, He gives, He gives. And tears well up in the corners of my eyes, because I wonder how many I missed.
Counting 1,000 Gifts….

Ohhh, now that would be good! Still thinking about your “courage” post. Truly, lovely!
stacey,
i enjoyed your gifts list today….especially the one about struggling for routine, knowing it’s good, and right and worth it—i am so with you on that one!! we started school last week and i’m the one struggling with sticking to the routine. i want to do what i want to do, not what i know needs to be done…uurrgh! it helps to know that i’m not the only mommy who struggles with this….
Me, too! Me, too! Me, too!
Let’s just take it one day at a time???
Preferably with lots of coffee! 🙂
I am glad to know that I’m not the only one who wonders what I’ve missed! May God give us eyes to see each one..
Grace and peace to you Stacey.
Amen Emily!!!! Thanks for stopping by today!
