"See" A Good Day Challenge - Day 8

As I walked into Hunter's room this morning, I expected to find him snuggled up in his bed ready to resist having to get up for school.

Instead I found him on his knees by the side of his bed. I said "Hunter what are you doing"? He said "I was praying mommy, I was scared when I woke up and you said that when you are scared to pray to Jesus and he will protect me and make me happy".

I said "oh o.k." I really was kind of taken back, wow... so I said "go ahead mommy will kneel with you. As I knelt down beside my sweet 4 yr old I just was overwhelmed with love, tears and SO HUMBLED... I mean man!!! This is what it means to be like a child so meek and humble. Hunter was so trusting and without even knowing it he was showing faith in what mommy said. Jesus was watching over him.. We have a picture over his bed and he just knows he is never alone. What a beautiful way to start my day!

"See" A Good Day Challenge - Day 7

"AT LEAST IT IS CLEAN", As I emptied hamper after hamper of clean clothes on my bed, I had the thought....

Man I'm so lucky and blessed to have a washer and dryer in my garage. I don't have to wash all these clothes by hand, hang them in the sun to dry for hours, nope I just push a button and they are dry in 20 minutes.

Sometimes I take for granite the fact that I only have to walk 10 steps out side of my bedroom to get to the laundry room. Some people have to go 10 miles and wait in a room full of machines with strangers.

Today I'm grateful that one of my simple blessings in life are my washer and dryer and that I can provide "clean" clothes for my family.

(Good thing Steve is out of town or he wouldn't have anywhere to sleep it is all piled up on his side :)....)
