a daily exercise...
a way of life.
If we profess to belong to the LORD,
we are to bear the fruit of thankfulness.
Is it difficult?
Sometimes.
Is it rewarding?
Always!
Is it a burden?
Never.
As my list of thanks grows, I become more aware of the
MANY blessings in the "everyday".
And the numbering continues...I'm over half way!
The challenge was to reach 1000.
I anticipate the desire will be to continue counting,
numbering ~ joy-finding.
It is addicting.
601. All four children playing with Lego as they listen to a
children's CD ~ Scripture set to joyous music!
602. One child offering a place to sit on the floor to another ~
they are not always this amiable...is it the influence of the music?
604. The shoots of green and the promise of corn
605. Old pair of rollerskates for Emma
606. Neighbours who own ~ but don't occupy,
who allow a flower photo-shoot ~
mine aren't nearly as exciting :)
607. Random games of UNO without coersion
608. Boys that can walk to WalMart together ~
to look at Lego! :)
609. Coffee...very occasionally ~ yum!
610. Sea breeze benefits ~
in spite of the fact that we live a few miles away!
611. Lazy days of summer
612. Food for the soul
613. The shouts of "CAR!" from the boys playing street hockey ~
it's a Canadian tradition :)
614. Sound of the neighbour's lawn mower with firstborn running it ~
summer job generously given
615. Bengal Spice Tea ~ Oh Yum!
616. Singing through the Hymnbook with the children ~
wonderful hymns of the faith!
617. Home office
618. Supper all together ~ most nights
619. Beach walks as a family ~
sometimes Daddy is able to join in!
620. My brother's parking pass for free beach parking ~
wonderful!
Many Blessings,
Camille
