LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

I’m thankful for God’s sweetness to us, which sounds very cheesy, but I use the word “sweet” because it is unnecessary and yet so kind of God to make sure we know we are loved. It has happened this year through answered prayer, through other people’s words, through songs and Bible verses, and unexpected phone calls. And it has happened through our children. So, with the absence of a photo that represents my gratitude for Peter’s new job, here’s a quick trip through the past year and all the things we’re grateful for:

Waiting for Marilee one year ago . . . (and grateful that I'm no longer pregnant!)

Grateful that she arrived, 8 days late . . .

Grateful for kids who make each other laugh . . .

And for kids who make us laugh . . .

Grateful for weddings . . .

And new books coming out (this was from a party Peter threw when the book was released)

Grateful for kindergarten and pre-school . . .

What are you thankful for?
