Thankful Thursday

just pics from our week... and a little thank you too...
Thank you for all you sweet comments on the previous post; you all truly brighten my days with your sweet words. But I have to tell you I have my feeling way overwhelmed days and am certainly not perfect yet. I have days I use my mean mommy voice way more than I wish I had by the end of the day... I also have evenings I use my overwhlemed loud wife voice too much too!... We are all in training here for the army of the Lord and a work in progress...

We have had a beautiful week that seemed to fly by. I am not sure what we are doing for the weekend yet.

I am very thankful this week that that we have had such a beautiful Spring so far. Its really been lovely. I have really enjoyed it. I think I am seeing nature more with the Treasures than I ever did in the past. They love outdoors so much that I am more aware now of my surroundings.

I am also extremely thankful for God's continuous provision. With the constant talk of the economy troubles, gas prices etc... I never cease to be thankful for groceries, my home, my automobiles, etc... I am so thankful He continues to bless our business continually.
Ryan had to learn this little poem years ago in first grade and I stuck it to my fridge and it has always remained there as a reminder to me of God's merciful wonderful provision:

  • Your treasures are just lovely. I have always wondered... How old are they? I'm really bad at guessing. Also, I'm glad to hear you're human and use your mommy voice occassionally, too. :-)

  • Moms are not perfect!

    I use the same voice and when I lay my head down on my pillow at night, tears start flowing while I am thinking about how I can control my "Mean mommy voice" next time.

    You always bring a smile to my face with the beautiful photos that you post.

    All of your post this last week were great! Thanks!

    You have such a beautiful family.

    Have a great weekend and I can't wait to see the memories you captured in your photos.

  • You know my friend, I know EXACTLY how you feel. It is so, so hard being the consistent disciplinarian. I feel like the wicked witch sometimes. It is very yucky!! Praying for you and some quiet days.

    Of course, your children are beautiful as always.
