These are seven of the more peculiar things for which I'm thankful from the past week...
Finished Project | Now, all 3 underbed drawers are complete! Maybe Alison will post a pic or two...
Short Week | Though it makes for a feeling of low productivity at the end of the week, a short work week is always a nice change of pace.
Random Text Encouragement | The little 56-character, out-of-nowhere text message I received on the way to work one morning last week was a nice pick-me-up to start the day. Thanks again, friend, for noticing the Holy Spirit's nudges.
Nature Walk | JT's homework (Yes--preschoolers have homework, too.) last week included going on a nature walk and looking for certain items like an acorn, a red leaf, an ant, a twig, etc. We did a late afternoon/early evening hike as a family last Thursday in the woods behind our house. It was gorgeous! It was a great family moment.
Piddling on the Piano | In my former years, I learned who I was and to have confidence in this person God made through music. Although my musical achievements were not on the piano, I've always enjoyed tinkering with chord progressions, melody lines, and some harmonies on the ivory. I got to do that for 20 minutes or so last Friday. Ahhh.
Wrestling with JT | He's been asking to wrestle quite often lately, and it's fun. It's definitely more WWF-style (the staged aspect, that is--not the the folding chairs and body slams) than any technical skills. And JT usually gives one or two of the down-from-the-gut laughs.
Golf | Before this past weekend, I had golfed once. (Evidently miniature golf doesn't really count.) I participated in a golf benefit. It was a "scramble," which meant that everyone on the team hits from the spot of the best-hit shot. In 15 holes, I think we used one of my drives, a couple of my ons, and I got a couple putts in for us. It was good times.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
