  1. Tuesday’s list

    I am grateful always for the friendship and love I share with my mother.

    I am grateful for the healthy foods available to us today to enhance our lives and energy – it has made all the difference in the world to me.

    I am grateful to see the wild cat outside my kitchen window each morning. She is too scared to come close, but is darling and nice company. I worry for her living out with the wild things, so am always relieved and happy too to see her.

    I also continue to be grateful for this exercise – thank you again Susan !

    The lack of sibling rivalry in the relationships of the four of us kids since we grew up.

  7. I am grateful that I had the ambition to get on the treadmill again today!

    I am grateful for the many books I have to read that help me forget about whatever may be going differently than I planned.

    I am grateful that I have a Father who will listen to me go on and on and on!

  9. This morning, my brother and I reminisced again about our mother, who left this life in August of this year. I realized anew how much she passed on to me of her creative bent. I’m grateful that she taught me the value of making quilt squares properly, then putting them together properly, to result in a beautiful piece of fabric art.
    I am grateful that she taught me to appreciate floral arranging. I can’t arrange for trying, but I certainly can appreciate the talent that goes in to it!
    I’m grateful that Mother taught me by example the fine art of sewing. She made clothes for me as I grew up, from the simplest of play clothes to the most elaborate of formal gowns. As a result, I, too clothed my children by my sewing machine as they grew. Now, one of my daughters is clothing her daughters, and I hope this skill continues to be perpetuated throughout the generations. What a legacy, and what fun!! I have a quilt made from scraps of clothes I wore as a young girl. My mother and her mother made both the clothes and the quilt. It’s awesome!
    I really miss my mother. She couldn’t get well, so God broke my heart to prove that He takes only the best. I’m so grateful she was my mother and my friend.
