a walk in the park while it's only 84F;
a flock of swallows tittering every morning like schoolgirls at their lockers,
one of them swooping down to carve her initials in the pond;
discovering a heart at the heart of a rose on my table;
dental cancellations for both of us at just the right time;
my Velcro buddy, almost always in whatever bed lies nearest;
watching Allen play wrestle with him;
finishing Kelly Minter's Nehemiah study;
cobbler made from Allen's own garden blackberries, frozen a handful at a time;
strength for a long outing by myself last week;
slowly starting to check off the tasks assigned by my new doctor;
the serendipity of a gift for a birthday later in the month;
my parents' 44th anniversary;
an excellent sermon on 2 John;
understanding friends;
songs known by heart;
if the Lord tarries, the blog's second birthday tomorrow (August 7)
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord!
Psalm 150:6
(still taking the Joy Dare and counting gifts, these gathered from 6953-7016)
