Day 5

I am thankful for new life! 
The sweet couple friend (Ryan & Katie) that live with us had their baby boy this morning!
Baby Laedin Micheal Cormier
9 pounds and 21inches long
I am so proud of Katie, she was able (with God's grace) to have a natural birth!
She had him in record time, I think it was like 6 hours? So crazy fast!
It is just so encouraging to see babies on their first days of life!
What a sweet reminder of how ALL blessings are truly from Above!
Praise the LORD for this sweet gift of baby Laedin!
(had to get a pic with them too!)

Day 4

I am thankful for Cherry Coke Zero
Haha (you can laugh!)
It is probably my most favorite choice of drink.
It has a nice splash of cherry that keeps me coming back for more!
If you haven't tried it...please do. 
You won't be disappointed! :)

Day 3

I am thankful for the Christmas season. 
I love all the different parts:
the snow, family, food, traditions, Christmas music, 
mistletoe, twinkle lights, cheesy Christmas movies,
stockings, strawberry puffed pancakes, fudge,
making homemade cards and gifts,
my nativity scene collection,
and...
Most of all, 
I love how it reminds me of my Savior's birth.  
Jesus became a baby because He loves sinners.
He loves them so much that He gave Himself, 
so that we might be reconciled to God.
Christmas calls us to worship King Jesus!
So very thankful for this season. 
Praise the LORD!

Day 2

I am thankful for the Word of God
It is a grace from the Lord to have His written Word, that
we may grow in understanding of the Gospel of Christ

 
Oh how time is never wasted when I go before it
...may the Lord give me more grace to be in it each day!
How quickly I forget the truth and promises of our God.  
What a mercy to have the very words of God recorded
for His children to study, memorize, and meditate on!
Praise the LORD!

Day 1

I am thankful for a husband who loves me.
This was the night he proposed, 
February 21, 2009.
 
I thank the Lord for this good gift. 
A husband who points me to Jesus 
and endeavors to help me understand 
the love of God that is mine in Christ!
Praise the LORD!
