Top Ten

Every day I ask God to help me be thankful and to see the blessings he gives me.  So here is a list of the top ten ways He made me smile this week (and it's only Tuesday):

#10.  Finding two pickings of green beans in the garden.
#9.    Making a custard, with my "fine figure of a man", and giving it to the neighbor family.  This was after buying eggs and milk from Hannah and Mercy.
#8.    Giving my mom half of my little custard cup.  She said she hasn't had custard in years.  Yep.  Tasted just like her grandma used to make.
#7.    My dad saying "have I told you lately that I love you?" in response to the Pastor's sermon that morning.
#6.    Finding the blender in the storage.  Pretty much was a "needle in a haystack" moment.
#5.    Watching a lady at church unwrap a baby gift.  Just pretty much her pregnant state made me smile.
#4.    Having students who were at our school last year approach my desk to say hello.
#3.    Knowing we will see our kids in September!
#2.    Flowers to fill a vase.

Drum roll, please....

And the #1 way He made me smile this week:

1.    A memory of Sawyer at the age of 3 or 4.  We had gone to Portland to visit my expecting sister.  It was her baby shower.  Uncle Dan had gotten a huge t.v. at an estate sale.  Sawyer was quite impressed.  He said "Wow!  Now that's a man's t.v."

No blessing is any greater than another when it comes from above, just makes me darn thankful~
