Joy for Joi, Week 13

A few things I am thankful for this week...

+ The view from the kitchen window getting more and more beautiful.  Loving the cherry and apricot trees!

+  Seeing how Rayna hangs laundry on the clothesline:

+  Hearing Strider excited about the newsletters he's been making

+ Chris Rice's "Come to Jesus"song, and getting to hear it at church

+  Getting some much-needed solitude time

+  Getting some much-needed revelations concerning my pride

+ Seeds growing into plants in our garden

+  Overhearing this morning...
Miles (as he's going down the stairs): Colsen, I want to hold your hand.
Colsen:  Oh, you do?  Ok.

+  Watching them walk downstairs hand-in-hand, this mother's heart melting

+  Enjoying the last nights of two footed-pj-clad boys  (Will one be too old next year?)


+ Getting to celebrate 2 Easters... We are in the unusual situation of having just celebrated and sung "He is Risen" this past Sunday AND facing Good Friday tomorrow.  Wondering if this means we can take 2 Easter breaks, too...

p.s.  Week 13 marks the 1/4-mark of my Joy-journaling year, and I just listed # 359 in my notebook.  God has sent many blessings... I look forward to seeing what the rest of the year brings!
