One Thousand Gifts (part 12)

Inspired by Ann Voskamp's One Thousand Gifts, I am making a list of 1000 things I am thankful for. Everyday miracles, gifts from above. Here is my continuing journey:



211. golden raspberry bush's little white blossoms


212. Seeing Immaculee Ilibagiza speak--testimony of inspiring faith, message of profound forgiveness and love

213. Evening out with Kevin and wonderful Mother-in-law who watched kids for us


214. fresh mixed berries



215. smell of apple cake baking in the oven


216. cold egg rolls!


217. kind loving words from husband offered spontaneously


218. discovering new section of local library full of wonderful books!


219. Breve Creme coffee creamer made with real cream-so yummy!




220. son's high fever breaking


221. waking up healthy!


222. male cardinal tenderly feeding his mate


223. driving alone at night with the radio loud


224. homemade bruschetta




225. heaven clouds out my front window


226. sun poking through the clouds after 6 straight days of rain


227. sitting by sunlit window--warmth and gentle breeze on my face


228. Big beautiful gentle horse with intelligent eyes. Feeling his hot breath and soft lips tickling my fingers. Awe of God's creation


229. damp cool fragrant air of Spring night wafting through bedroom window


230. loving husband who puts children to bed while I take a much needed nap


231. pumpkin seeds germinating, miracle of growth and new life




...more to come
