1/9/06


Good Morning everyone! This is my sister-in-law, Carey, and I just got off the phone with her. I called her because I was sad, and I knew that talking with her would make me feel better...and it did. She listened to me, sympathized with me, and counseled me. She is a wonderful friend and a beloved sister. I hope she knows (she will now, if she didn't before) how much I love and appreciate her. God has truly blessed my life by giving me Carey.

I am thankful for...

1. my wonderful husband who loves and respects me. Even when his work schedule is jammed and he has a billion things to do, he stops to call me to see if I'm okay. I love him so much!

2. watching Michael run into his classroom and give Miss Gina a big hug today! It is such a blessing that he enjoys going to nursery school.

3. my brother-in-law (Carey's husband), Steve, who is a wonderful man. He and I are very similar in a lot of ways and I so enjoy his company.

4. the long, calm nap Daniel is taking right now.

5. once again, the beautiful weather today!

6. the yummy pot of coffee Todd made this morning.

7. the long, hot shower I took this morning.

8. the pretty pansies we have in our front yard. Todd works so hard to take care of what God has given us.

9. the lunch-date I have with a friend today.

10. knowing that God is very much aware of everything that goes on in my life, and that He wants me to come to Him for love and attention. I am so glad that He has a plan for my life (Jer. 29:11). I can't go wrong with Him in charge!

Hi Amy. Just wanted to let you know I read your lists. Not everyday, but I catch up every now and then. Sorry to hear Michael bumped his head again. That hurts to think about. If you are ever feeling sad again and your sis in laws aren't available, you can call me. Your brother can try to cheer you up too.
