Category: Thankful Thursdays

Grateful for time. Time alone, time together, to enjoy, to work, to relax, time to pray, time to heal, time to share, to do everything, to do nothing.Thankful for the time I’ve been given.  May He give us all more of it.“Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear,…

For forgiveness, toothpaste, and workouts (and not necessarily in that order). Most importantly, thankful for the ones in my life who bring on my sense of humor when I need it the most (as dry as it may be), reminding me I have one, and bringing me back into balance. Thank you! ♥ “It just…

For relocations. The type that brings your loved ones back home. Recently, my brother and sister-in-law; just this week, my cousin and kids. We are thrilled to have you back!….

Thankful that some of the best things in life are free — rainy days (okay okay ☺), hope, love, praying (or we’d be broke), faith, memories…
Aren’t we lucky?….

On Monday, our baby girl turned 21 — fifth milestone of 2013 for us — so thankful to have been blessed with life to see it happen. Lauren, remember, you will have many more experiences, many more moments, and pass many more milestones. Seek your balance. ♥

Danny graduates today. Wow, time’s flying, just flying. He had a very good run at Immaculata-La Salle, and we are immensely grateful. Wishing the class of 2013 much success in the years to come. We are so very proud of you Danny! You are blessed and we know you’ll put that to good use….

Thankful for the little things I have to look forward to. They don’t all have to be big things, do they? The grouchy look on my “not-a-morning-person” kids’ faces, because still I get to see them yet another day; the confused look on my cat Nervous Nelly, because she’s just too weird-funny; my husband returning from a 4-day business trip, because that’s the longest we’ve been apart ♥; spending time with a loved one I haven’t seen in a while, ’cause what could be better?
What are some of the little things you have to look forward to and are thankful for?…

Cousins who play together stay together…thankful for this trio – Lauren, Vicky, and Danny….

Yesterday, the first payment from my profits (February/March) of Scenes Everlasting was made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and to Autism Speaks. It was both wonderful and humbling to give to these two organizations the support received from so many of you. More to come, thankfully. Your participation in this has been incredible, and I can’t thank you enough for making a difference.
Please continue to help by sharing with others the book link and its purpose….

Today I’m grateful for whoever invented spectacles, as I realize I’d be lost without these magical eyes…..jeez!!                                    “I was walking down the street wearing glasses when the prescription ran out.” ~ Steven Wright
