Multitude Monday, Take 259

Thanking God this week for...

4261. pretty aprons
4262. Google Maps
4263. the insane wealth of info at my fingertips online--from subway maps to bus schedules to street fair listings to box office hours to restaurant menus
4264. the way Elijah makes the lowercase "a" in his name
4265. the fact that last week was the first time I've ever taken Jude's temperature

4266. His using me even when I feel tired and empty
4267. Elijah's excitement about his new sneakers
4268. meals out of the freezer when I don't feel like cooking
4269. the family portrait Elijah drew at preschool--with two Judes
4270. errands during preschool = only one child to buckle in and out of his carseat a zillion times

4271. an umbrella stroller to keep Jude contained
4272. a long-overdue haircut
4273. Jude attempting to jump on the numbers like big brother
4274. the relief of a breeze
4275. Jude "helping" wipe down the shower

4276. all-natural homemade cleaner that Jude can spray safely
4277. opportunity to show hospitality to our church family
4278. delicious apples and cider from a local orchard
4279. Steve patiently listening to me ramble
4280. a relatively smooth first day teaching 3-4yo Sunday school

4281. our pastor's insights on the story of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5
4282. the example of the wife of one of our deacons: serving, serving, serving, constantly
4283. playing Candyland with Elijah is SO much more enjoyable than it used to be
4284. time to read and tickle and play This Little Piggy with Jude
4285. a beautiful article by a beloved former professor in my alumni magazine
