Enjoying being "Grammy" and "Nanny". Look forward to weekly visits with my bus kids and the ride to and from church on Sunday morning. Aware that many little eyes may be watching me. I want to be a faithful example to them.

Thanksgiving

I am behind on this one! We had a nice Thanksgiving with PLENTY to eat. I was very conservative on my eating and did not overdo it this year. I am now to the point of life that food just doesn't look exciting. Now don't get me wrong. I get really hungry but the food I eat rarely does satisfy me. Don't say anything but I think the tastebuds, along with everything else are aging.

Casey and Maleah and Ryan came over for lunch and we enjoyed a time of fellowship with some board games afterwards.

I don't think we ever did say anything about what we were thankful for but there are lots of things.

I am especially thankful for my heritage and for being able to see God work through my parents. I am thankful for the good husband that God gave me. He has been loyal and faithful through ups and downs. I am thankful for the three beautiful children God gave me and all the memories I have with each one of them. I am thankful for my church family and all the memories of the many services for all these years. I am thankful that God still blesses when we bring our actions in line with his desires. I am thankful that I will not receive what I deserve for this life I have lived so recklessly many times. I am thankful for God's love that never ceases. I am thankful that I have a foundation and a rock to stand on when things are not what I imagined they would be nor what I hoped for.

Psalm 103:24
"O Lord, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches."
