Thankful Thursday, Take 48

Thanking God this week for...
  • a timely phone call from a friend today when I was feeling frustrated and isolated
  • encouraging emails that arrive at just the right time
  • Elijah's growth and health
  • his starting to make noises besides screaming bloody murder--we much prefer the coos over the crying :)
  • the lactation consultant at my local hospital
  • Steve's sensitivity, servanthood and patience
  • the internet and the vast amount of information at my fingertips
  • novels that are just as good the second time you read them
  • cooler weather
  • long walks with my husband, son and dog
  • pizza
  • homemade chocolate-chip-cookie-ice-cream-sandwiches, courtesy of a friend from church
  • His mercies, new every morning
  • the fact that He is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love
  • the glorious gospel that reminds me I'll never be good enough--but I don't have to be
