Blessing Box Link-up

I want to write. I'm just not sure what I want to write about. I saw a link up today about blessings. You're supposed to share the blessings in your life or something...I'm not sure. I don't think I paid close enough attention. Hold on a minute and I'll check it out...

Yep, that's pretty much it. You just share what God is blessing your life with in this moment. That's a pretty good thing to write about, I think.

Here goes.

At random.

Eva started preschool and is loving it. I am so grateful that she wants to be there and she wants to learn. Not only is she enjoying preschool, but I am so grateful to be able to be a part of this school.

Aubrey is almost potty trained. I say almost because it seems she's mastered the pee part but number two is something she still likes to keep to herself. Well, I just said that and she'll probably prove me wrong about the pee part. Tomorrow she'll wake up and pee all over herself all day long. It's what the child does. Prove me wrong. Anything to get a reaction. Maybe she'll decide to prove me wrong about number two. Maybe tomorrow is the day she decides the potty is the place to be. One can only hope.

I had a good visit with a friend from high school today. We talked at our class reunion a few weeks ago and realized that we are now right down the road from each other. She came over today and it was really nice to get to see her. It also motivated me to mop my floor and trust me it was getting bad.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I started reading Kisses from Katie a few days ago. I've had it for a while and it was on my reading wish list for even longer. It's one of those books that I've really wanted to read but put it off because I know it's going to challenge me. I have no doubt it's one that God is going to use to speak to me, and what I do with it is on me. Sometimes I like to act like my toddlers and pretend that I don't hear anything. Sometimes I like to be comfortable, and I know this book is going to make me uncomfortable. But in a good way. In a growing way.  I saw a quote from Ann Voskamp the other day (I can't remember the blog that was quoting her), she wrote, "And the Holy Spirit, our Comforter, comforts us when we step outside our comfort zone. It’s only in the uncomfortable places that we can experience the tenderness of the Comforter."  I believe that. 

One more blessing, I'm making tacos tonight. This is a blessing because, well, it's tacos. They're easy, they're yummy, and my honey likes 'em. Plus I've got a couple avocados that need to be used so I might even whip up some homemade guac. Plus plus, the girls don't like guacamole, so that means more for Adam and myself.

 

 

   

There are so many more blessings, but my belly is grumbling and Aubrey has whined at me, "My hungryyyyyy!" a couple different times now.  So, I'm going to just say yes to the tacos.
