with joy and celebration. But there are moments
when our hearts nearly burst within us
for the sheer joy of being alive.
The first sight of our newborn babies,
the warmth of love in another's eyes,
the fresh scent of rain on a hot summer's eve-
moments like these renew in us
a heartfelt appreciation for life."

"It's the little things that make up the richest part of the tapestry of our lives."
Careful to remember the little ones do copy me...with my glasses and a pretend purse, she is ready to go.
So tonight, whether storms like this that hit suddenly, or...
...the sunny days we've had recently, I want to live my life with a heartfelt appreciation for what I have been given.
Thankful for each of you too!
James 1:17 is one of my theme verses in life.
