Weekly Photo Challenge: Circle
In response to this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge .
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this moment, this child, as he gathered all his cars together for a little circle time!
Wordless Wednesday – Blanket tent
Weekly Photo Challenge: Enveloped
This little guy loves to be enveloped in his favorite blanket. If he’s not enveloped in it, it’s certainly not far behind…a little boy and a his blanket, a pretty happy place indeed.
Snug as a bug, he’s perfectly content in his happy place!
This is my contribution for this week’s photo challenge, enveloped. You might want to take a look at what other people have contributed by going here, or better yet, join in the fun and share a photo of your own interpretation of the challenge.
Thankful Thursday: 3 Gifts Found in my Mom
3 Gifts Found in my Mom:
1. My mom…she is an amazing lady who has experienced more pain in her lifetime than probably any one person ever should have to experience. Through it all, she has managed to keep this amazing smile on her face, and in her eyes.
I’m thankful for her determination to stay strong, forever young at heart, and never,ever give up on life!
My mom and her beautiful smile!
2. Next to her family, her greatest passion in life is to teach….anything! From Chinese Checkers to English as a Second Language, and everything in between. She loves to lead the way in the learning experience, and watch the “lights” turn on in the eyes of her “students”.
I am so thankful for her passion to help others improve and learn.
Always looking for a “teaching” opportunity.
3. Most of all…I am thankful for my Mom’s unconditional love for me. I haven’t always made life easy for her, you know how it goes in those angsty teen-age years, but in spite of me and all the dumb stuff I did (or didn’t do) she has always loved me and made sure that I knew it!
I’m very thankful for her never-ending, unconditional love for me!
My Mom…she loves me!
Thanks Mom! I love you!
Thankful Thursday: 3 Gifts that made me laugh
3 Gifts that made me laugh:
1. These two little kids certainly know how to make their Grandma smile and laugh with delight! I am so thankful that they are in my life, and for now…they really enjoy just hanging out with me! I hope it stays like this for a very, long time.
2. I can’t imagine life without my beautiful daughter and this amazing little guy! Just like his mama, he is pure joy! This special moment was brought to you by “frog” and a little belly laugh too!
3. And then there’s this guy! After all these years…he still makes me laugh and smile! He definitely has captured my heart!
I am oh so very thankful for him and I love living life with him!
These are just a few of the things that I am counting my blessings for today. I am so thankful for my family and the joy and laughter that they bring to my life.
I am truly blessed.

Wordless Wednesday: Two Sisters
Weekly Photo Challenge: Express Yourself
The challenge is to show what “express yourself” means to me…
It seems as though we have all learned a great way to “express yourself“, from the oldest down to the youngest.
It’s called the selfie and it can be so much fun, especially when I get to take one with one of my grandkids!
Admittedly the challenge seemed to be a bit abstract to me, but I guess the best expression of myself would be my love for my family.
How would you express yourself in a picture?
Wordless Wednesday: Just taking a stroll…
Thankful Thursday: 3 Gifts Out My Window
3 Gifts Out My Window….
1. I’m thankful that I’m on the inside, looking out my window at the car wash. I love knowing that I can get my little bug all clean and shiny without me even getting out of the car to get the job done!
2. I’m thankful that when I look out my back door window, I am able to see these pretty flowers that just keep on blooming, even in the midst of our construction project. A gentle reminder to me that there is beauty to be found in everything, even when my own little world feels a little chaotic and out-of-order.
3. And this moment, this very tender moment when I glance out my front door window, and I see these two amazing people. My husband helping our youngest grandson put on his shoes so that they can do some “gardening” together. A task that our grandson has become fascinated with as of late, and something Grandpa was only too willing to help him with.
I’m thankful, oh so thankful that God gave them to me.
These are just a few things that I am so very thankful for today.
I know there will be more, because I’m going to keep on looking for the good things…I hope you find some things to be thankful for today as well. Just take a peek out your window and see what you can find!
“We need to regularly stop and take stock; to sit down and determine within ourselves which things are worth valuing and which things are not; which risks are worth the cost and which are not. Even the most confusing or hurtful aspects of life can be made more tolerable by clear seeing and by choice.” ~ Epictetus
