1,000 Gifts ~ #345 - #365



Counting gifts of grace is a way to acknowledge God's blessings throughout your day ...

#345  Spending a few hours with friends for the sole purpose of accountability, knowing I am absolutely 100% safe to share my heart and that they will pray for me daily.  What a gift!

#346  Hanging out at the library with my girls.  They love to read and I'm so grateful.

#347  Eric taking the girls out on a date.  He's so sweet to them and makes them feel like they're the luckiest girls in the world.

#348  My Daddy calling me, laughing so hard I have to wait until he settles down to understand what he's saying :)

#349  An unexpected 'Facetime' call with my little brother.

#350  An afternoon with just Emma.

#351  Olivia asking me (in the most serious tone ever) if she has read too much for the day.  Ha!  I'm so thankful she loves to read!

#352  A warm home on a cold night.

#353  A good night's sleep.

#354  Seeing my 8th grade girls for the first time in 4 weeks!  They are the sweetest group.

#355  Talking with same girls about encouragement and listening to them come up with ideas on how to bless others. 

#356  A reminder that there are some Jesus-chasing, God-fearing, humble kids in the next generation.  How refreshing!

#357  Hearing my girls do devotions together and then pray with/for each other.  Love.

#358  Laughing on the way to school.

#359  A warm afternoon to ride bikes.

#360  Watching Olivia at gymnastics.  She works hard and loves every second.

#361  Listening to Olivia encourage Emma after Hershey (her guinea pig) died.  She said the sweetest words to her big sister.

#362  Lying on Emma's bed and listening to her play the piano.  She's learning a new song and it's one of my favorites.  Can't wait til she can share the whole thing with us.

#363   Dropping Emma off at a friend's house, feeling so blessed that God has provided sweet friends with like-minded parents for my girls.

#364  Having my entire extended family (minus John Patrick) at my house for Sunday dinner to celebrate my Mom's birthday.

#365  My blanket and an afternoon nap.
