Remembering

choosing...
is an action
and
rejoice is a verb
and these
are not mere pulsing emotions.
Today, I am reminded
(again)
that
giving thanks
is a choice.
I am choosing thanks, are you?
In the silent times : seek God
In the painful times : praise God
In the harried times : hallow God
In the terrible times : trust God.
And at all times,
at all times
Thank God.

she's so sweet...
I am so proud of you. You please my heart sooo
much.
I love how you work hard for your team.
I
love when you fist-pump. I love how you
run to the front of the line to congratulate the opposing
( & winning) team. I love your
laugh.
I love watching you with your nieces and
nephews. I love that you serve others with your
music.
I love the twinkle in your eye.
I love that we are going
(together) today to your first make-up date. I love seeing your sisters and
sisters-in-law as your *friends* on your first
day of Facebook.
I love that you invited me to be your *friend*.
I absolutely love the music you bring to our home.
I love your gorgeous dark hair and
beautiful brown eyes. I love your style. I love hearing you giggle with
your friends. I love your intensity.
I love that you were born into our
family at just the perfect
time. I love watching you shoot
3-pointers. I
love your
faithfulness. I love your
piecrust. I love
your innocence and purity.
I love seeing you read your Bible at
bedtime. I love that you have answered
the call of Jesus. I love that you are truly growing into a beautiful young
woman of the Lord. I love that you are
my daughter.
I love YOU.
Always.
No matter what.
Mom

Happy Birthday,
my sweet, sweet girl!

just sayin'...
I am coming out of hiding
to say thank you and to say goodbye.
White Wednesday
has been an awesome opportunity
for me to share
my white world with you.
So let's party one more time!
I've gone through some of my files
and
pulled out a (just a) few
of
my
favorite white photos.
white lace
my white room re-do's
(some) of my white pretties
my white handiwork
white christmas
white celebrations
my white projects
*miss gracie's* white shopkeeping
That's a lot of white
and
a lot of WHITE WEDNESDAYS!
White really is my favorite color!
and now it is time.
for your faithfulness
every week.
Good bye,
WHITE WEDNESDAY.
I'm gonna miss you.
