Thankful Thursday

I am thankful for so many things today! I am thankful that Russ had the day off yesterday, and though I would have liked to have spent the day with just he and I, he stayed home with sick Blake and crazy Holden and I spent almost 3 hours at lunch with a friend. Praise! I am thankful that Blake is feeling better and was able to go back to school.

I am thankful that Gavin was awesome at the dentist this morning. He had a couple of cavities, and they wanted to sedate him in order to fill them. It was going to cost $375 just to walk in the door...NOT. After much finagling, Russ convinced them that Gavin did not need to be sedated. We were hopeful that he would be a trooper and prove to the dentist that he did not NEED to be sedated...and HE WAS AWESOME! Not a peep! We did have to brag on him to the other boys, because I am preeeeety sure Blake would have had an out of body experience in the same situation! So, I am thankful for Gavin's bravery!

Thankful Thursday

It is not Thursday yet...only Sunday...but I just am so thankful for our small group. There are 6 other couples that we meet with each Sunday night to talk about how God is working in our lives, what we are struggling with, to praise Him for our blessings and to study God's Word. Then we lift one another up during the week with prayer. The more we get to know these couples, the more blessed I feel. I really believe that the Lord put us with this specific group for a reason and I am enjoying getting to know them all better. This group is so genuine and "real" and I am thankful to have them help me be accountable. Blessed!

Gavin goes to school four days a week. The one day that he is out, is Thursday. He LOVES Thursdays and so do I! We try our best to stay in our PJ's ALL day and snuggle. Gavin gets his love of being at home honestly, his momma loves to chillax too, so on Thursdays we are thankful for our time together doing just that!

Holden on the other hand, not so happy about "chillaxin". Seeing as to how he is one of the most destructive children I have known, he makes it extremely difficult to enjoy that "downtime" ... but it's all good!

I am so blessed.
