I'm Thankful For...Teachers Day 16 Not the normal type of teachers. I thankful for them too but that's not what this post is about.  Last night I went to my life group. It's kind of like Bible study to our church. We are studying about parenting in our group which I don't think we can ever study to much. We are all at different points in child training and going through different struggles and it is great to talk to others and get suggestions.

"David is strong because he had God in his heart and God made him strong. Goliath was strong because ...." Umm didn't know how to explain that one ...

Tonight I was going to go ahead and write tomorrow's Thankful Thursday's post all about God's conviction and what a blessing it is along with His grace. Before I got started I started reading some other blog posts from today and wow did I get what I needed. See God's conviction is great but His grace is bigger.

I have been married for almost 6 years and have been unhappy with them this whole time until a friend helped me figure out some simple ways to edit them to make the look nicer and I was so excited to have wedding photos that I loved and would be proud to display that I worked until almost 1am to get them done. Of course that was not nearly enough time so what did I do today...well I worked on them again way to much. I didn't get any Bible time today, no teaching time with Rex, didn...

So I want to get a really quick post out before I walk out the door. Today I'm thankful for several things. Miah's plane has landed (that's why I'm running out the door). I slept last night with the help of all natural help (Homeopathic report later after I use it for more that one night) My dad is able to help this morning with Rex so I can get Miah My nephew is continuation is today from elementary to middle school Think that's it! Hope you can find some things that you are thankful for today too!
