Beginning my list....

Today,  I decided to begin my list of 1000 Gifts of Thanks.  I am linking up at a Holy Experience.  We all have so much to be thankful for--can we stop at just a thousand?  It's a beautiful place~take a look, savor, and enjoy!



The list begins....

#1~the grass looking a little greener each day
#2~an unexpected gift and the beauty it brings...


#3~watching his fingers as he creates beautiful music
#4~my heart growing with excitement over an upcoming surprise for my kids
#5~the buds forming and preparing to make their debut...



#6~watching the birds as they nibble on their morning breakfast while I enjoy mine
#7~two girls with kindred hearts--sharing and laughing
#8~thankful for a husband who doesn't mind washing dishes
#9~sticking with reading my devotional each day
#10~treasuring his cereal face and bed head hair...

I heart Mondays nowadays, and I’m here from Ann’s.

First – welcome to the counting – you will find that the counting of the blessings is a blessing all of it’s own. And my favorite from your list today – #8~thankful for a husband who doesn't mind washing dishes (as one man to another – I say a big well done to the guy – and a fist bump)

God Bless and keep you and yours

Have to wait until I get home to "see" the photos. I'm at work and they won't show up. Anyway, just from the descriptions along I know they're great!!
What a great project. I'llhave to keep this one in mind for nextyear I can only manage one project at a time. Yours is awesome.
