Little Things

Ten "Little Things" I enjoyed today

1. Christopher Paul hugging me and telling me he was glad we got to spend the morning together--just the two of us.

2. Paul calling twice from his trip.

3. Lauren's sense of accomplishment at swimming from the diving board to the side of the pool all by herself.

4. Karene returning from vacation.

5. New friends at the swimming pool.

6. Catching up with a friend whom I haven't seen in three weeks.

7. A letter about honoring a dear friend from Pepperdine.

8. My mom who was willing to pick up Lauren from art camp so I could attend a luncheon.

9. Dinner with my kids and no tv.

10. Psalms 121

I lift up my eyes to the hills-
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD ,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot slip-
he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

The LORD watches over you-
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

The LORD will keep you from all harm-
he will watch over your life;
the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Dear Father,

Thank you for all your wonderful gifts. Thanks for your words, help me to learn to be more grateful and to learn to lean on you and to not worry.

Amen
