Thankful Thursday

Thursday (6/30):  I'm thankful for freshly baked bread (especially hot out of the oven!).

Friday (7/1):  I'm thankful for an evening invitation to join a couple of friends for a small barbecue/picnic at a "new" park.

Saturday (7/2):  I'm thankful for not-too-hot weather, good company, and lots of watermelon!

Sunday (7/3):  I'm thankful for the spirit felt at church--it helps me to feel uplifted and more prepared to be a better me as I begin a new week.

Monday (7/4):  I'm thankful for the country I live in and the many freedoms I enjoy, a few of which are:  free speech; the freedom to worship who, where, and how I please; the ability to vote and have a say in my community and government; the ability to have "the world at my fingertips"--to be as limited by birth, family, culture, religion, education, money, success, etc. as I believe I am/allow myself to be.

Tuesday (7/5):  I'm thankful for the opportunity to serve my friends in various ways (calling, friendship, travel, etc.) and to also be served by friends.

Wednesday (7/6):  I'm thankful for the longest nap I can recall Grace ever having (just over two and a half hours!!!)  I was able to get so much done and, afterwards, she was such a happy and contented baby!
