I thought this would be a great time to start up the blessing posts again, what with Thanksgiving coming up! :D Some of them come from way back at the beginning of summer. . . .
Blessing (aka something I'm thankful for)
#65: Beautiful summer weather!
#66: End of school
#67: Reading friends' blog! (Really, you all have some pretty awesome blogs!!!)
#68: Mail. And by mail I mean letters. There's something special about receiving letters, and writing back too! Emails are great and a fast way to communicate, but with letters, you have to wait and anticipate its coming! Not to mention that letters are delightfully more "wordy" than emails :D
#69: The sound of children playing
#70: The swimming pool!!
#71: All those dee-lightful comments left by friends and fellow bloggers! Honestly, those comments make my day! :D
#72: Great, thick, juicy books
#73: Music! What would we do if there was no such thing as music?
#74: Flowers, part of God's beautiful creation
(and now I'm going to take a few blessings from my old blessings book from when I read 1000 Gifts, by Ann Voskamp)
#75: Round, fresh brown eggs
#76: Rest after a busy day
#77: A country home
#78: Pretty tissue boxes :)
#79: The Bible!
#80: The almost magical moment when a couple is joined into one
#81: Thrift stores
#82: Beautiful golden red sunsets
#83: Baking
#84: Mom's new fancy-dancy dining plan :)
#85: Droplets of water on grass
#86: Butterflies
#87: Family!!
I'll stop there for now :) Actually sitting down and counting my blessings leaves me amazed at the goodness of God and His endless love! He truly is a great God!
What are you thankful for? Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Sunday! :)
