coming over for coffee with Corbin, their version of a porch party

- Elvia!! (she shows up a lot on these lists...)
- Mama Bear shirt in a gift bag just showing up on the pool house counter... some sweet friend did this for me??!
- Increased awareness of my words (good grief will I ever learn?!)
- These two cuties
- Coffee ~ yes, even black
- What the Tulsa Jameses are going through. Thankful in all things, even
with so many emotions connected. That you created Jenna, and Your lamp
searches her spirit, it searches out her inmost being ~ both spiritually
and physically. Be so, so present with them, Father.
- In making these gratitude posts, it makes me realize how much I am enjoying this season of parenting. I love these ages of the kids, love that Bran is driving and Hud's about to, love that we have adult conversations with all four kids, but they're all still kids, and we go to sleep most every night with all four tucked in their beds upstairs. I am so, so grateful for this time. Grateful for Corbin, for his provision and hard work, for the stability he brings our family. Grateful for Branson's strong leadership in our family, and what Hudson adds to that and how he stabilizes his big brother in many ways. Basden's leadership as the oldest girl, and Essie's spunk and tender affection she offers. So, so much to be thankful for. Lord ~ I really can't express in words, my heart overflows.
Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the
wonders he has done, his miracles... 1 Chronicles 16:11-12
