There is so many things for which to be thankful. Rain in Seattle to make it green... Sun when we get it, that peeks from behind the trees and shocks you into squinting into God's beauty of the VAlley...a prepubescent hand in mine when I cross a parking lot..she still holds me hand, pinch me! Cars that are running smoothly, and a home to enter when tired of the "out there" day. Dishes being in the macine and washing(...you all KNOW how I dislike/hate/detest dirty dishes.) Wonderful grown adult children/women that honor each other with decency and warm regard for one another in ther own respective ways.
Prayer in those lost, confused times when I do not know what to do.
And let us not even go into the food, warm beds and cash to pay bills due to a dilegent husband and miraculous employment...
It is enough to make me wonder why God loves me sooo much...

Every new Day...
brings its own joys and sadness. Saturday a major piece of the family relocated to a new local. What a difference and what a shadow of what it could be like without the day to day connection with a family member. I real with the magnitude of ripple effect in life as I know it without Grandad at home.
Coming home the house felt hollow and loud...and strangely silent at the same time. How I have been blessed these past years with his presence and his sense of living.

Blinded by God's kindness in a sometimes unkind world
I have reached an interesting point of the day. Do I get down to paying the bills or go to bed? The bills won. How is it that once again the God in charge has literally set my feet on dry ground and presented me with good choices and happy endings? It never ceases to amaze and astonish my heart just how much God looks after me.
