Today is the first day of Lent. I’m playing this beautiful Lenten game a friend made up. One of the things I have to do is keep a running list of 10 things I’m grateful for daily, for 40 days. It seems to be an easy task. We will see. As I do with many of my thoughts and treasures I think I’ll keep my list here. And, since I haven’t picked up my camera in weeks I want to post a photo daily with that list.
If you want to join us please do. Denise and I would love it!
Day 1:
1.) I am grateful for this game! I’m so excited about it.
2.) I am grateful for the WONDERFUL Doctors my husband has.
3.) I am grateful my son Stephen is able to follow his heart and go on the mission trip he wanted to go on. He has such a servers heart.
4.) I am grateful that my son Matthew calls us everyday to check in when he is 1000 miles away from home at college.
5.) I am grateful for the school Matthew gets to go to and the education he is receiving.
6.) I am grateful my husband has work today. It is his hands that feed us and keep us going.
7.) I am grateful for Kathryn and the help she gives me daily. She is such a blessing to me.
8.) I am grateful for my youngest daughter and her beautiful smile. She brings so much joy to so many people.
9.) I am grateful for my beautiful mother. The ear that she lends me often and her oh so generous heart. I hate to think of how things would be without her.
10.) I am grateful for that first cup of cup of coffee in the morning. Oh! How I love it so!

A game worth playing every single day. During bedtime, we always include in our prayers things that we are grateful for and it’s just a nice way to end each day, I think. 🙂
