THANKFUL THURSDAY
"What are you thankful for today? Stop by Sonya's blog, Truth 4 The Journey, to find out how to share your gratitude and see what others are thanking God for today."
1. My husband is off for two weeks- no studying! HALLELUJAH!
2. My son asked to go to the potty twice today and we haven't even officially started mission potty training. THANK YOU JESUS. (Candy rewards help too:)
3. We have a roof over our heads, clothes without tears, reliable cars, more than enough food, clean water to drink, a good gospel preaching church, great loving friends, and healthy growing children. Life is good.
4. I love my husband and am so grateful for him. I told him yesterday that it bothered me that there were toys left out in the yard (probably only four toys- I am ridiculous like that.) He said it didn't bother him and I said I would pick them up later. I looked out the window this morning and he had picked them up for me. He knows my love language:)
5. I love my mom and dad. I don't ever want to take them for granted. I thank the Lord for all the wonderful years I have had with them and hopefully many more to come.

The potty training...I have never had the experience of trying to potty train a child, but I hear that it can be horrifing. We have a couple at church who have had this prayer request...so I am Thankful with you that the little one has taken this up.
ReplyDeleteBlessings & good luck!!!

I have been there before and actually potty trained our daughter by an old fashioned oven timer set to go every hour. I could see how you would be very thankful for that! Sounds like you have a great Hubby too!
ReplyDeleteGreat T.T. Post!

Laurie,
ReplyDeleteAren't love languages great once you know what they are and how to speak them? I too am grateful that Steve and I both discovered ours. It makes things much easier and it works on our kids as well.
One is a canary and the other a puppy! Steve is a cat and I too am a canary!

This was a terrific list! Realizing one another's love language and then speaking it is such a great accomplishment in marriage!
