Praising amidst the rollercoaster

Today has been challenging to say the least.  Nothing has gone the way I planned.  I could certainly find good reasons to complain today as I have spent all day running from doctor's office to 3! different pharmacies. However the purpose of this blog isn't to focus on the trials, it is to record the little graces that God sends to encourage me each day along this challenging journey from IN to TN.

So here is the list of things I'm thankful for today:

-A delightfully happy albeit sick baby. Amarissa's sheer joy rivals that of Alegria.  She has been smiling and cooing all day despite being sick enough to warrant a visit to our favorite doctor. She is such a delight!

-Wonderful friends who came and hauled away our scrap metal pile for me while I was gone. This is a huge blessing and one big thing off of my to do list!

-A great husband who loves me even when I am hard to love. I am thankful to know he's always there even when I am short tempered and my emotions get the best of me. He is truly one of the greatest blessings in my life!
