4/13/11

I'm not listing today's food, because I am sick, and I know I didn't eat too much (eating was not enjoyable today), and all I want to do is list what I'm thankful and then lie back on the couch and hopefully drift into peaceful oblivion.

8) A 5-year-old who delights in delighting me with a surprise (he fed the cat without being asked!)
9) VeggieTales buying a pleasant evening of couch time with same 5-year-old
10) blooming tulips
11) husband who canceled a class and other school obligations to stay home with the kids when I burst into tears of desperation this morning
12) decongestants and ibuprofen
13) this dang flu, that's forcing me to confront my complaining grumbling (slave of Egypt) heart and lean on my Savior
14) generosity and grace from unexpected quarters

James 1:something...Blessed is he remains steadfast under trials, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of righteousness which God has promised to those who love him.
