Way to go Julie for counting to 1000. Amy challenged me to count and so, I reached my 1000 in one year, just barely! Now, I'm working on my next 1000. Seems I like looking for eucharisteo, makes life come alive and be amazing:) So thankful for Ann and her challenge to us. Bless you sweetie!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Hannah! Counting gifts really does make you slow down, enjoy His blessings, and feel His presence.
Deletethere really is nothing like a midwest thunderstorm!
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing your blessings today!
Thank you! We don't live in the Midwest but recently traveled through there. The Pacific Northwest doesn't normally get storms like that, so it was a noticeable event to us! :)
DeleteWhat a great list, must go google "osprey" now.
ReplyDeleteThank you! They are beautiful birds, and typically make very large nests. There is a huge nest on top of a bridge near our home, and I always enjoy it when the first osprey returns to the nest each year!
DeleteWonderful list of gifts!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tammy!
