Jesus, today I am thankful
15. For babies, who are no longer really babies, speaking words to me. Real words, real thoughts, but spoken with a little baby lisp. "Yeth, Mama, eat, eat!"
16. For remembering suddenly to look into Little League and discovering that TONIGHT is the last night to register. Try-outs are tomorrow, and I didn't fail him.
17. For the Jesus Storybook Bible
on sale this weekend, which is ministering to me more than any sermon as I read it to my boys.

alongside me. 19. For changing my heart and giving me direction about where I'm supposed to be serving.
20. For friends who have cows, and fresh milk
21. For homemade buttermilk made from that milk
22. For internet recipes
23. For blog comments that make me laugh
24. For baby Brielle, whose name means 'God is my might' and sounds like a breath of heaven. Desperately missed. Her life was not in vain.
Thank you.........
ReplyDeleteWe love the Jesus Storybook Bible here, too. Our big boys request falling asleep to the CD's almost every night.
ReplyDeleteYou need to try this homemade syrup recipe with the buttermilk. It sounds weird, but it's so yummy! To make it "healthier" I use organic sugar and replace the corn syrup with agave syrup.

Oh Kira you brought tears to my eyes reading your sweet words about Brielle. And I totally agree with you on the Jesus Storybook Bible.
ReplyDeleteOh my word, Melissa, that recipe sounds DANGEROUS!! I must make it immediately! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteOk, I have to tell you that I ordered the Jesus Storybook Bible after I read this post. We had been looking for something like that to read to our kids since the oldest has outgrown the toddler Bible board books. Wow! You were so right! The pictures are gorgeous and the stories are incredible. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSam, I'm so glad to hear that. I heard about it on another blog over a year ago and I'm bummed that I waited so long to buy it. I love it too!
