Nov. 20, 2008 - So many things to be thankful for!
I know that Thanksgiving isn't officially until next week, but a thankful heart happens anytime, doesn't it? I'm so grateful this week that I was able to finish off both the American Literature and British Literature books in my Excellence in Literature series, and get them sent off for final proofreading and production.
Getting these books reformatted and ready for publication has been a long process, because I've had a pinched nerve in my shoulder that has flared up twice--l the first time this summer for almost three months, and again just a couple of weeks ago. It's extremely painful to be upright, but the Lord has provided helpers, a way to work from a recliner, and much grace for this trial. I'm so thankful!
One of my favorite poems is "Gratefulnesse" by George Herbert. If you haven't read it, here's a link. It's worth reading and re-reading every year.
Tip: If you use Charlotte Mason's method of teaching language arts, "Gratefulness" is wonderful for copywork! I hope you are blessed by it.
