Even though it seems that there are not that many things to be thankful for right now, with the disappointing elections, all the soldiers overseas still fighting, and the general state of affairs in the US, we are still very blessed by God, and we found a great way to visualize this list, this year!
This is the beginning of the tree, that we put together Sunday night, the kids have been adding a few more leaves each day as they think of new things, plus Turtle tought since we still have grass outside, the tree needed grass too, so there is green grass at the base. The blue circle is Frog's coconut falling from the tree. Can you tell that his favorite book is Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!
I would have to say, that my favorite leaf so far, is the one that says "laughing with friends". It is the simple things in life that count in the end, and it is through the simple things in life that God shows us how much he loves us. Let us not get so caught up in the busyness of the season, that we forget to be still and hear His voice.
