Tuesday Thanks : 1000 Gifts

Before we head out for the afternoon, I pull my little moleskine notebook out of my purse and transfer the joy list. Gifts are meant for sharing...

0902
Making his first ever game shot. Arms immediately thrown in the air. Sweet satisfaction.

0903
The sun's bright white rays streaming through dark clouds.

0904
Peter's wonder at it all.

0905
Finding sticks in my purse. And moss covered tree bark.

0906
A stand up and cheer family movie night. Secretariat on DVD.

0907
Mushrooms on my section of the pizza.

0908
Handwritten notes.

0909
Out for sushi with my love.

0910
Rocking chairs.

0911
Under eye concealer.

0912
Her gratitude journal. (Hannah adds five to her own list each night before bed.)

0913
Crocuses. Signs of life returning to the landscape.

0914
Climbing the stairs ready to fold then finding the laundry folded and put away. When this happens it always makes the list. : )

0915
Math lessons that involve chocolate chips. (The book suggested dried beans as counters but what fun is that?)

0916
Their love to look at their baby albums. (Hannah and Will that is... poor Peter's is still not finished!)

0917
Feet meeting in the middle of the couch. Sunday reading with Hannah.

0918
The sovereignty of God.

0919
Resting in that.
