Thankful Thursday Thirteen
This week I thought that I would combine Thankful Thursday and Thursday Thirteen.
Psalm 50:23
The one who offers thanksgiving as his sacrifice glorifies me;
to one who orders his way rightly
I will show the salvation of God!”
I am thankful for…….
- The birds and their songs. The way they brighten a day when it is the first thing you hear as you wake up.
- Little baby cuddles that let you know you are blessed and loved.
- A husband that works so hard for his family.
- To have a godly husband who seeks the Lord daily.
- To live in such a great nation that at least at its beginnings recognized God and his sovereignty.
- To have the freedom to worship.
- For my husband to have the privilege of serving this great nation in the military. To defend the rights of others, even those who treat the military and their own nation so poorly.
- To stay home with my children, barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen is actually a good thing!
- To know like-minded Christians and to be able to encourage each other.
- That my morning sickness is not as bad as it typically is and I can function almost as I usually do.
- For the rain and the refreshing it brings.
- For the sunshine and the fact that I have air conditioning!
- For a life that far exceeds what I could have ever imagined having as a child.

The freedom to worship is a blessing indeed.
Happy for you that you can stay home with your children. ‘Twas always my dream.

What a wonderful combo post and beautiful, inspirational list this week.
I had fun visiting your TT.
Mine is at The Cafe.
Hope you’ll drop by.

That’s a great list! It’s so easy to take those daily ‘usual’ things for granted. This was refreshing! Happy TT!

I like the way you combined the two TT’s. I enjoy seeing your “baby” in the sidebar growing each week when I visit. My husband couldn’t have children and we have accepted this although it was very hard. Blessings to you.

Hello! I’m home from my birthday vacation. How was your celebration. What was in the box on your table???
I’m off to do laundry and take a nap! I hope to get a post up soon… but I wanted to stop by and say hello.
Have a great day!

What a wonderful list of things to be thankful for, things we take for granted! I want to thank you for the qf blogroll and let you know that I truly enjoy being a part of it. I have met a lot of wonderful women that have such great advice and encouragement.
Thanks,

So glad to read that your morning sickness isn’t too much to handle. I hope you aren’t too tired either. It sounds like you have a busy household.

Amen.
