Our Busy Little World
Aug. 11, 2009 - On Thanking God For The Little Things...
...Fast forward to this morning. I was up most of the night taking care of Isabelle - she always seems to get the highest fevers! Long story short, she ended up in my bed, and finally went back to sleep at 6:30am. I was trying to figure out how to get up and get ready without waking her when a phone call endangered her sleepiness. I quickly snuck out and managed to do so with her still asleep. I'd been puttering about downstairs for a bit, getting some morning things accomplished, and thinking about making breakfast. I finally decided to make some food, but was disappointed that I'm still in my jammies, which don't happen to be what I want to wear in front of our neighbor-facing window. It would be impossible to sneak in and get clothes without waking the little one. Knowing this, I was right in the middle of thinking to myself (hadn't even got as far as praying yet) how much I would really, really like some clothes, when I passed the dryer. Voila! All those dripping, icky clothes from yesterday are now clean, fresh, dry, and just waiting for me to wear...Thank you, Lord, for a lovely morning gift!

I'm so sorry everyone got so sick. I can imagine your joy as soon as you realized what was in the drier. Amen!

Ugh! There seems to be nothing worse than the pukes. I feel for you for having to endure the vomit-shower...lol! It bet your dryer full of clean clothes never looked more inviting. God is great! It is funny how he seems to provide in ways that most people would overlook :-)

Perspective is everything, isn't it? Thanks for such a gentle reminder that, no matter what the situation, there is always something to be thankful for. God bless you and I pray that all is well. I can't see your slide show, for some reason.
