Giving Thanks Friday

 

This week I am thankful for:



The sunshine this week!  We don't get it often so we celebrate like it's a holiday around here.  


The first strawberries from the garden ~ nothing tastes as sweet .


The first peas from the garden ~ I love that they come packaged in their own edible wrappers!    


The FREE glass my husband scored for us from the door company.  The greenhouse may actually become reality.  


My extended family who never give up on each other and who love each other no matter what.


All the young high school graduates donning cap and gown here this weekend.  May your futures be as bright as the promises of God.          

       


What are you thankful for?


May your weekend be filled with many reasons to give thanks!

    1. Stephanie - I had to laugh when I read mending and Sunday in the same comment since I had to do a bit of quick mending before I went out the door to church on Sunday after discovering a bit of loose stitching on my outfit leaving a bit of undergarment exposed. Thankful I discovered it BEFORE we left!
