I realize November started a few days back, but I think I can do a quick catch-up of some things I am grateful for!
Day 1: Mass at 8 am with my family. Yep, 8 am, 7 kids 2 adults. WOW!
Day 2: Friends who offer to feed my kids dinner and then drive them to their youth group rosary prayer group. Without the generosity of others, I don't think my 2 older kids would make it to this. And we know how important it is.
Day 3: Saint painting wooden peg people. I have wanted to do this for a long time and now a new family in our Little Flowers group hosted a get together in her home. How fun!! 2 of my girls and I painted St. Therese, St. Patrick, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, St. Matthias, and St. Agnes. They turned out so cute. I will be running out to buy our own supplies!!! :)
Day 4: Our oldest son is in a Catholic youth group. We had 2 extra teen boys for dinner, then my husband drove them and 4 other teens to their youth meeting. What a fun, safe environment for these teens on a Friday night. God has blessed us.
Day 5: My two little boys (aged 4 and 2) had been playing quietly on the floor with their wooden train set. So much fun!!!
Well, hopefully I will be able to keep this journal up. It's not difficult to count the blessings, but having time to write them down!!!!
God bless.
I should have went with to the painting, the dolls turned out adorable!
