365/Grateful project

7 on the Weekend



1 THESSALONIANS 5:18

18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

21. I am grateful for lazy, Sunday afternoons with my family. Do I hear at "nap" calling my name?

20. I am grateful for beautiful, speciality papers for my crafts.
Ohhhh, how exciting! (I think I am paper obsessed).

19. I am grateful for the convenience of online shopping. I can get my favorite shoes, and never leave my living room! More time with my family!
Helps me buy only necessities, and not get tempted to purchase things we don't need. Too much stuff! Let's simplify our lives so we can concentrate on what is important!

18. I am grateful for easy, slow days to hang with my daughter. Just alittle shopping and lots of fun.

17. I am grateful for great friends who love my children as their own. They celebrate the parenting joys and support in the crisises.

16. I am grateful for music that lift my spirits and inspires me.

15. I am grateful for co workers that are like family. We all love our students and work for their successes! We support each other daily in work and in personal lives. I am a very lucky person.

9. I am grateful for time with friends. Making plans for get togethers in the future. Sharing moments, lives, and challenges with each other.

10. I am grateful for the love on my pets face when they see you, unconditional love at it's finest.

11. I am grateful to sleep in on the weekend!

12. I am grateful to attend church with family members and to revisit my childhood church.

13. I am grateful for my church pew in my living room (there's a story) .... When my grandmother's church in Ceres was closing, my sister and I asked for some of the furnishings.
Everytime I look at it, I think of my Grandma Grace and her unlimited faith.

14. I am grateful cool fall weather.....love it!
