1. I am thankful Wednesday is over, it was a rough day.
2. I am thankful that we are leaving for vacation on Friday.
3. I am thankful for friends that make me laugh when I am stressed, and friends who let me vent to get my frustrations of life out.
4. I am thankful for my sweet bed that I can climb into each night, and know when I wake up it is a new morning and His mercies are new every morning.
Update: PS if you could my youngest son is taking a very important reading test today, if you could say a small prayers I would GREATLY appreciate. This is one worried Momma here today.
If you get a chance come visit me over at Laced With Grace, it is a short devotional this week =)
Updated: Thank you so much Crystal for the kind words, you are a blessing to me.

1. Laurel Wreath - She’s just so much fun to check up on every day! She has such a great
heart and am constantly encouraged by her! She has such great insight into the
Bible and I love her perspective.
I can already tell this is going to be a good day.

I’ll be praying for your son, my sweet friend. I am sure you already went to the testing place…
I am happy for your that you are leaving for vacation on Friday. I hope that you and your family have a wonderful time.
Isn’t it great when we are low to have friends that cheer you up — like Crystal
- Congrats to yet another award. Crystal was so kind to call my “rocking blogger” too — hm, maybe is the purse give-away *grin*.
Thank your so much for sharing your thankful heart with us this week.
Be blessed today and always.

Laurel, I could say ditto for every one of your “thankfuls”. Although, I would switch out yesterday for Tuesday…but last night’s Beth Moore Bible Study, put me back in line! Forgot to add that to my thankfuls!
I pray that you all have a wonderful vacation! And a BIG prayer for the reading test! May God bless your son!!!

Thanks for your honesty about a tough week - we all have them don’t we? And I will say a quick prayer for your son - I know your heart on this matter. My daughter struggles with tests and I am so worried that she will never pass her math ISAT test - without it she cannot graduate. Whatever do kids without praying moms do?
Amy 06.28.07 at 3:26 pm
hope you enjoy your holiday

Short and sweet. Love the fish photo.
Please think about joining us for Fruit in the Spirit Friday next Friday. I know your leaving for vacation tomorrow.
Each Friday morning there will be a FOSF post and My Linky.
