multitude monday

Here's my continuing Multitude Monday post, which all started a while back, right here.

"One Thousand Gifts":

1328. Joe, Vince and Anna playing library
1329. an understanding, grace-full husband
1330. going to the store to buy an item that you need, knowing it costs $9.99 and getting there to find out it has a rebate of $8.99 {since the limit was 2, I decided to splurge, spend the whole $2 and buy all the way up to the limit . . . crazy, aren't I?}
1331. true friends -- through the fun times and the not-so-fun
1332. finally being part of a book club {I LOVE to read and have never, ever been in a book club until now . . . well, we meet for the very first time in a couple weeks! I can't wait!}
1333. kids waving palm branches::
1334. the cute way Sara clicks her tongue
1335. the very last day of having a 5-year-old in the house {at least for this time around}
1336. Anna's bed head::1337. a visit with a good friend who moved far away
1338. letting go of commitments and the wonderful people who take them over
1339. another rather successful introduction to the highchair and food::1340. The Children's Shelter of Cebu and another wonderful, amazing, tear-inducing annual banquet
1341. a fabulous babysitter {gotta love arriving home to 6 sleeping kids and an exceptionally clean house!}
1342. motivation and accountability
1343. safety and protection

always, always blessed by and thankful for these precious kiddos that the Lord has entrusted to us {even when they aren't all clean and dressed for Palm Sunday!}::




Alrighty, that's it's for now. Tune in next Monday for the next installment.
