blessings

Last week was a bit more quiet. School. Bedtimes. Chore charts. Regular stuff. Not as fun as Spring break and visitors but it is always nice to get back into the groove I guess. I'm also grateful for:
  • A few hours of yard work over the weekend. Lots of weeding, new mulch and sunshine. Cori got the mower out for the first time this year. The lilies are on their way up and the tulips we planted last fall are getting ready to send up their blooms. The trees and bushes are leafing. Spring at last!
  • Warm temperatures ahead. After a week of rain and thunderstorms, the kids are ready to spend their afternoons outside again (me too!).
  • Week no. 19 of our pregnancy. Only 9 days to go before the big ultrasound. I'm not a waiter. Maybe it has something to do with all the unpleasant surprises we've faced in the course of other pregnancies. But I really like finding out. We're excited to see what we've got cooking in there.
  • Heavenly Father's care of our family. He has always led us in the past. Things have always worked out. It strengthens my faith and gives me peace regarding the undefinable future.

Very nice yard Jesse. I feel the same about our Father in Heavens love. I feel so blessed in my little 4 man world!

Thinking about your family. I'm anxious to hear, if you'll share, about your ultrasound. How exciting. Spring is a welcomed event in Freeport.
