Since my sister over at "my special place" created a blog,
I figured it was finally time for me.
Tonight, I'm just feeling very thankful. I'm grateful
that I get to go camping with my hubby and some of
his work friends. I'm grateful that I get to leave work
early to go camping! I'm just feeling very blessed.
I am co-directing a retreat which is put on by 30 women
in the parish. We meet for 13 weeks to plan and prepare for
the women who will attend the weekend retreat. We are
only in our 5th week of meeting, but already, I can see the Holy Spirit
at work. And I'm grateful for that too.
I'm especially grateful tonight for living next door to my sister,
her hubby, and 3 awesome children. I miss them, though, because
I haven't seen them much lately (even though we're next door).
But last night, for example, I had to run over to their house,
and I got swamped by my two
little nieces (which I'm sure I will post about often). I was only
over there for 15 minutes, but it's good to see them for even
that short of time.
I'm grateful, on this 7th anniversary of the terrorist attacks,
that we live in the USA, and that there are men and
women who serve everyday to protect and defend this great
nation of ours. And even though I'm sick to death of all of the
politics, (which I'm sure I'll blog about at some point), I am
grateful to live in a nation where we are free to have and express
opposing opinions.
So that's what I wanted to start my blogging with....just
a grateful heart.
