Grilling burgers on the deck...I realized last evening that I absolutely love our deck. It's old and splintery, and our patio furniture consists of those plastic chairs, one glass topped table, and a nice lounge chair from the second hand store, which we play musical chairs with. But we have a grill that works, and we get the sunshine out there all day...shade in the afternoon and evening. We have a fire pit out there too. Summertime is just plain sweet...
And:!!!
My very own granddaughter in my very own minivan! She was exhausted from her overnight travels from Washington state, although her mama and daddy said she was a good little traveler. She was headed to her other grandparents' house to catch up on some sleep. We won't see them until Monday...
And:!! Samuel James is home, on leave from the Army! Bad mom award, I fell asleep before he got home, fully intending on coming out to say hello..oops. So I took this nice pic of his backpack..
He's up and the day is starting...bye for now.

I think when we take time to realize how much we genuinely do love things about our home, our life - and take time to pause and offer up thanks and praise in our hearts to Him for those little even silly things --- ah I just think that He loves that! The new English song on BMM reads "you are dear to Him and He just longs to bless you!" - rings true in my heart. He longs to bless us with good things and when he sees us joyful in the little things, I can imagine His heart swells with love and He can't wait to bless us with more. I would do that for ANY of my kids anyway!
