i LOVE 2207...i'm sure that was a sweet moment for you. I'm jealous you have a garden going- its still a little chilly here in NC to plant anything- but it won't be for long!

Thanks for emailing me with the information. I've joined in. Love your blog.

Love it when our little ones fall asleep in our arms. How sweet!

Your welcome. I'll be praying for your Granny.

I am so glad you are marking for gratitude and remembrance specific daily gifts: a granny's love, a husband's prayers, a son's healthy development, an organized, peaceful nursery class, the soul nurture that comes to those who tend plants, beautiful spring days...your thank you's are always a joy to read.

So glad to read your granny came out of surgery well. My favorites one these week were # 2199 and 2203, so sweet Bennett is letting you know what he wants!

Of course I love all of them. Hate choosing a fave - but here it is - 2206. for Sam showering my granny and family with prayer

You have a good man there - he has a lovely bride - faith will keep you two united for a lifetime - I can just tell :)

God Bless
