Welp... it's Friday!

And I made it thru another week. There is so much to blog about, but nothing particularly important. I'm grateful for a bunch of things, but mostly for good kids. Mine, and other's who've been entrusted to my care. I'm grateful for stability, and consistency, which is proving over and over again to be my truest friend when it comes to raising kids.

I'm grateful for my job. At least on paper. Where it has been custom tailored to my strengths, and helps me work on my weaknesses. I'm grateful for all of the people it has allowed me to meet, influence, and grow with.

I'm grateful for my family. My mom especially who is the best mom and friend a gal could have. Every daughter should be so lucky. I'm grateful for the situations that remind me how blessed I am to know Jesus - and just how REDEEMED from the curse of this world I am.

I'm grateful for my church. The people who work really hard to make it wonderful, and who geniunely care for each other in times of trouble, and in times of need. I'm grateful for my pastors, who though they receive little financial reward, work hard to BE pastors. I'm grateful for how blessed they are in their lives, - it reminds me of the blessing line I'm in.

I'm grateful for sowing and plowing. I don't know where this hard work is going to take me, but it sure is interesting to watch things bloom and then grow.

Yeah. It's Friday. What a great day to look back on things and think about them.
