At it again

I popped on over to Ann Voskamp’s blog again this morning for the first time in a while. Because it is a new month today, she has posted her September Gifts calendar. Might as well dive in here and there and keep my gratitude meter appropriately running. The fun thing about this morning’s dare is […]

Yesterday my heart was overflowing with gratitude for the moments I have with the ones I love. Opening my thankfulness flood gates felt so refreshing.  Felt so so so so good.  So right!  Like I was created to praise the Creator.  🙂 I was poking around A Holy Experience blog again today and stumbled upon […]

TWO DAYS!!!

I have TWO days to complete scribing my 1,000 gifts.  I only have to jot down 158 gifts. No biggie. Our horribly slow internet has hindered my consistent blogging.  Add all the other great craziness in my life and then you might see why recording my gifts via bloggyland has been few and far between. […]
