God is so generous with me.

and i really don't deserve any of the things that He is giving me right now.

i'm happy because He has opened my eyes to the small ways that He is loving me lately. and He has opened my heart to continue to ponder the big ways that He's loving me. here's some of the ways;




i had a really rough start to my morning today; i was not in the mood to be nice at work. and then one of my coworkers (who leaves today for a cruise) showed up because she left her cell phone in the office last night. she was the first person i saw and she made me laugh hysterically, just like she always does.

one of my other coworkers and i are getting to be really close. and she likes to hug. which i normally don't like. but lately, i love it. and i know each of those hugs is packed full of love from God.

my other friends are being really understanding that i'm just not in the mood to talk. it hasn't been a big struggle to put them on hold.

my coworkers met my husband; and the next day they all told me that he was a 'hottie'. =)

the nausea hasn't lessened, but we got to see our baby.

we got three christmas cds in the mail this week, a card from a friend and two letters from my sisters.

our finances aren't amazing, but they're good.

my car warns me when it's below 40 degrees 'ice possible; drive with care'.

traffic hasn't been that bad this week.

i get a whole week off (plus the weekends!) for christmas; and it's all pto.



He is gently calling me back to Himself. and i'm ready to go and run to Him . . .
