DayBook~

Outside my window~ rain, rain, rain. It rained all night ~ it is a pretty sound with a slight breeze, very warm, seventy degrees outside. I have every window in the house open this morning!

I am thinking ~ How blessed I am. I am a daughter of the KING. I am His and He is mine. I have a godly adorable husband. I have been given six children who I love. I have 8 grandchildren (one soon to be born!) who make me smile. I have loving family on both sides! I have a wonderful church family. I have everything I need and way beyond! God has provided a warm and cozy home. I am blessed beyond measure!

I am wearing~ bluejeans, black short sleeved tee, and bare feet ~ I might be changing into shorts shortly!

I am thankful for~ LIFE! All the good, bad and ugly of it. He has a plan and purpose for all of it. I trust HIM!

From the learning rooms ~ we will continue to work on Hannah's sewing project this afternoon. Her skirt is done. She is working on Rebekah's now. We hope to wear them for the Thanksgiving season!!!

From the kitchen ~ Gourmet Chicken and baked potatoes, glazed carrots and a green salad. No dessert...cutting sugar!

I am creating ~ a surprise gift for a young friends Birthday!

I am going ~ to make applesauce and apple pies (for the freezer for winter) this morning as Hannah works on school work near me.

I am reading ~ has slowed down big time. School is in progress, so my extra reading time is minimal. I still read at least 20 minutes every night before I go to bed though. I am #3 on the waiting list for Francine Rivers New Book at our local Library also. She is my favorite author~

I am hoping ~ the LORD saves those I am praying for!

I am hearing ~ ducks quacking as they fly over head. They are headed south. I love watching them in formation!

Around our home ~ I am going to clean out the frig and wash it down this morning, pulling from the wall and doing under it too. Also need to get the rest of my winter things out of storage and put rest of my summer things in a tub for the attic. (I hate this job)

One of my favorite things ~ a good cup of coffee with my Bible and journal early in the morning.
