Thankful

Something so special has come over me this week. An extra appreciation for the little things in life. I've learned to love the bad days just as much as the good days. I feel so terrible after complaining about a bad day due to teething, or a short nap. What is that in comparison to a parent who just lost their only child to cancer, or a woman who is told that she'll never have a child of her own. I look at Eli and feel overwhelmed with joy, an indescribable amount of love, and enough thankfulness to last a lifetime. This time is going by way too fast, and I want to cherish every single second. The good days, the bad days, and the 'did that really happen' days. I'm thankful for this loving, healthy, precious blessing that we've been given, and I wouldn't trade him for the world.

"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever." Ps 118:1

We started our Journey Groups this week and I just know that the results will be life changing. I'm so excited to see what the Lord has in store for us this year, and I'm so glad to have such a special group of girls to share this experience with.
