Today, I am thankful for:
* Blue skies, warm sunshine and a cool breeze... all on the same day!
* Looking out my driver's side review mirror and seeing little hands waving in the wind
* Boys who are big enough to buckle themselves in, but still young enough to need their Momma when they're sick
* Friendships that endure long distances, emotional selfishness, and miscommunications... and somehow manage to deepen in spite of it all
* A thoughtful husband who lets me sleep with the fan off
* Mission Waco... a place where my life-long habits, assumptions and beliefs are challenged and I'm afforded the opportunity to change
* Preemptive Love Coalition - a group of friends who amaze and inspire me to believe that God is mighty enough and loving enough to demonstrate His power DAILY in the lives of ordinary, obedient people
* Pictures, songs and sweet memories that remind me of the 6 years, 5 months and 26 days that Paul spent on this earth
* Forgiveness, grace and the promise of eternity.

I'm thankful to be hearing from you on this post!!!
I was JUST driving today and thinking about Paul and wondering what he'd be for Halloween? I seriously was and I bet you are doing that quite often. I know he's having much more fun than a silly Halloween...but still!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know you guys are never far from my mind OR, most of all, my prayers!!!
And I am thankful for you! :-)

I am also thankful for you!
I have been meaning to tell you that I have the picture of your three boys, standing on the beach, Whit has a green flashlight in his hand, on my bulletin board next to my computer. I look at it every single day.
It is a good thing and a bad thing. It makes me smile, at their sweet faces, but makes me sad, because in my mind and heart Paul is still 'in your picture' and my heart doesn't want to believe otherwise
Think of you every day.
Judy
