Thankful For My Kids {30 Days of Thankfulness – Days 7-8}

November 9, 2010 by Dana

Today I’m covering two days of Thankfulness because well I missed yesterday!  I am thankful that each day I am able to raise myself out of my bed and love on my children.  I am thankful for their sweet little souls that God has entrusted to me.  I’m thankful to be able to recieve and give sweet kisses to my babies everyday.  They are truly gifts from the Lord above.

I’m also thankful that I am able to stay at home with them every day and have them home with me.  I often see other Mothers send their children off to stay with someone else, stating that they want their children to enjoy being with so-in-so or that they “need a break”.  Yes, we all need a break sometimes but God gave these children to us, as parents to raise, not to the community.  I’m thankful that I have the opportunity to raise the children God has entrusted me with, to raise them up in His name and His glory.  I pray one day when they are grown they will do the same with their children.  I know this is God’s plan for me.  I bask in the glory of His love when I take up this cross of childrearing and do my best to succeed.  These days that they are young, I know I cannot get back and I will not give away these moments and memories to anyone else.  They are mine, and my children’s to hold in our hearts forever, just as God cherishes each moment with us.  I’m thankful that He has blessed me so.

Thankful for Family {30 Days of Thankfulness – Day 6}

November 7, 2010 by Dana

Today, I’m truly thankful for my family.  For my children.  For my Mother, my sisters and my brothers, my neices and my nephews.  A year ago I did not know them all and I’m thankful that this year the Lord brought the opportunity for us to know and meet each other.  I love my family so much.  God has truly blessed me in this.

1 Timothy 5:8 If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

Thankful for Pets {30 Days of Thankfulness – Day 4}

November 5, 2010 by Dana

Today’s thankfulness is a simple one.  I’m thankful for my sweet little doggie Clairabelle and our sweet over-grown Labrador, Sassy.  Both our girls are extensions of our family. 

Sassy belongs to Josh.  She is his duck hunting buddy and well, his best pet friend.  He loves to take her with him on rides in the boat or truck, both of which she really enjoys.  He enjoys tossing her duck decoy in the pond so that she can fetch it back to him.  She brings his heart great love.

Clairabelle, or Claire as I call her, is my baby.  She’s a lap dog at heart.  She loves to snuggle up next to me wherever I’m at and is never very far away.  She sleeps at my feet at night.  She kisses my toes to let me know she loves me.  She keeps me company and for that I love her.  She loves to fetch too and Sassy is her best friend.  It’s adorable to see them together.

I’m not at all a dog person but Claire is one dog who has my heart.  She’s my favorite pet ever.  I’m very thankful that I was lucky to find her from a good friend.

We are both thankful for our extended family members.  They make our heart filled with even more love than we can imagine.

Something I Love About Myself {30 Days of Truth – Day 2}

November 4, 2010 by Dana

Today’s truth is something I love about myself.  Wow, this could be a lot of things and so few at the same time.  I guess the one thing I love about myself is my heart.  Seems a little silly to say but it’s true.

I love how simple I can be, how my heart fills up with joy at the smallest of things, how it runs overflowing when I know I’ve made someone happy or see my babies’ smiling at me. 

Most of all I love the connection I feel to God within my heart.  It is the place where He speaks to me.  It’s the place where I feel His love.  The tugging I feel to guide me comes straight from God, straight into my heart.  It’s not the biggest of places but it sure feels immense when God fills it up with His love and joys.

I tend to wear my heart on my sleeve, to allow my emotions to show to much, but in this most people always KNOW if I’m being truthful and honest.  I take things to heart, too, but for me it’s a good thing, because straight into my heart is God’s loving guidance to take those worries away.  And He does.  He takes them away and replaces them with good things every day.

I’m thankful for a strong heart, for a loving heart and for the joys I find there. 

As a face is reflected in water,
so the heart reflects the real person.
Proverbs 27:19

30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 1

November 1, 2010 by Dana

As I mentioned previously, I have decided to join in on 30 Days of Thankfulness over at Modesty is Next to Beauty. This began in October but I am starting today: November 1st.

Today I am thankful that I was able to get our blog changed for Thanksgiving, that I was able to complete my first post for November is Epilepsy Month, and that we made it through our busy Halloween weekend of fun.  I’m thankful that my girls and my boys are all healthy and doing well at this time.  I look forward to a week of school starting back tomorrow.  There is so much more but mostly I’m thankful that God has blessed me with this wonderful life I am able to live.  God’s love is like no other and for that I am most thankful.

Until the next time.

The Simple Woman’s Daybook {Aug 10,2010}

August 10, 2010 by Dana

Today’s post is from The Simple Woman’s Daybook.

Website no longer available.

FOR TODAY

Outside my window the sun is shining brightly and the heat of the day can be felt through the shades covering the windows.

I am thinking about school planning, hoping to accomplish a lot this year.

I am thankful for my children who have truly blessed my life.

From the learning rooms we are preparing for school by keeping it simple and slowly introducing our studies back into our everyday life.

From the kitchen will be either sloppy joes or 4 cheese Rigatoni for lunch and pork chops, Rice-A-Roni, mac n cheese, corn and muffins for dinner.

I am wearing a comfy blue t-shirt with black shorts today.

I am creating plans.  Lots of plans for the house and school and life.

I am going to work on my kitchen clutter and classroom in a little while.

I am reading lots of blogs lately.  I enjoy the ideas that are being shared.

I am hoping that my headache goes away before much longer.

I am hearing the sweetest voices calling me Mommy and excitedly telling me what words they just wrote.

Around the house there is a mess that is slowly disappearing everyday.

One of my favorite things is the joy on my Two-dlers face when she does something she finds funny.  This girl is well loved and it more than shows! 🙂

A few plans for the rest of the week:  Organize, plan and get ready to paint the girls’ room.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing:  A beautiful smile to brighten the day!
