Thankful Thursday, Take 105

Thanking God this week for...

• a weekend in Memphis with my beloved mentor and her sweet, sweet family
• safe travels there and back
• worship time in the car, singing as loudly as I want
• all the work Steve and his dad accomplished in the new bathroom upstairs while we were gone
• the fact that Elijah's first experience throwing up wasn't more severe
• all the time I got to spend cuddling with him while he was sick
• frosted sugar cookies, a Valentine gift from my mother-in-law
• the Christian Counseling and Education Foundation
• unexpected emails from old friends
• soft turtleneck sweaters
• the surprise of 70-degree sunshine in February
• gently and patiently calling me to trust Him
• His compassion
• His faithfulness
• His steadfast love
