....for the beautiful fall day we're having today!
....for sons who've made me proud...even while being "challenged" to the utmost by them!
....for a loving, supportive husband who has borne with us all through some rather difficult years and is STILL here to "pick up the pieces" as needed!
....for possibilities in our family life with the "official" marriage of our younger son to his Easter bride on Oct. 2
....for the loving support of many friends and family during this stressful time and the help and ministration of my chiropractors enabling me to better manage my additional physical "challenges" in this difficult time!
....for growth in "communication skills" in the family and ability to handle (more)differences of opinion without anger!
....for the blessing of music and all that it does to sustain us and for opportunities to participate in the choral ministry of our churches!
....for the gift of faith and the witness of so many Christian friends to the reality of God's presence in their lives!
....for the written word in its many forms, giving us connection to other journeying souls and the comfort of knowing that we are not alone in our struggles!
AND...
Last, but not least...
For these Christian forums and their faithful, dedicated and wise managers who have been such a godsend to so many for so long!
"Praise God from whom all blessings flow."
Truly, today, "my cup runneth over!"
