Happy Thanksgiving!

We hope that you have enjoyed your Thanksgiving this year as much as we have! We are with family and I just love the process of cooking and conversation that takes place.

I am ever so grateful for my family and friends, for my son in law and the other soldiers stationed around this great world of ours. I am thankful for a sweet boy who is spending his first Thanksgiving ever with his forever family. Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!


Psalm 107:1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;his love endures forever.

Thankful Thursday

Today I am so thankful that Shauna & Isaiah are going to be home! Words cannot begin to describe my joy. In a matter of hours this family will be reunited and Isaiah will meet his brothers and sisters for the first time. Praise GOD!!

I am also thankful today for modern medicine! After nearly 20 years without real asthma trouble I have been hit hard..come to find out it is that way for so many this year. After starting a new medicine regimen and feeling run down because of it..I went to the Dr. again and now have bronchitis. Thankfully I have been started on antibiotics and should feel better in a day or so.

Just had a visitor..Judee from our church stopped by with something for Cassie. I am thankful for this wonderful woman and her example of Christ in her daily life. Oh we are blessed by so many everyday.

I am so thankful for my sweet blessings in Grace & Jeffrey. I love how these two even though they do argue at times still love to be together and ask each other how their day was. It's just so cute! Thank you Lord for all the blessings in my life, thank you for letting me be a mother to three amazing children and a Grandma to the sweetest little guy!

What are you thankful for today?

I am thankful that.....

In a week my dear friend will be home from Africa with her newest addition! Love you Sha! Looking forward to getting to know Isaiah and being able to love on him. Please continue to pray as they still need to get the visa.

We serve a mighty God who brought this wonderful family all the way to Africa to a little guy named Isaiah, who now will be with his forever family for his first Thanksgiving! How awesome is that!?

Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name;
make known his deeds among the peoples!
Sing to him, sing praises to him;
tell of all his wondrous works!

—Psalm 105:1-2
