day thirtyeight

dear god

thank you for today. thank you that my upset tummy didn't affect me being able to play with and watch the kids. thank you for magical bubbles and the fun we had with them all day. thank you for the sunshine and warmth. thank you that colton and ty are learning to love eachother. thank you for food, water, clean clothes, warm shelter and friends and family. please help us to learn how you want us to share all of the good gifts you've given us.

thank you that our neighbors and landlord have been so gracious and forgiving about the window colton broke. help us to show them your love in return.

i pray that you will make it so that frank and ezekiel grow up to love you and know you well. i thank you that their aunt is taking great care of them.

i pray that  you would give all of my friends all of the good things they desire. and please make their roads as pain free as possible. we know so many special people who love us and i just feel like they all deserve good things. i know technically none of us deserve good things but in as much as you can do and still accomplish your purposes for their lives that would be super.

i pray that you would comfort the quisenberry's after the loss of the baby they were planning to adopt.

i pray that you be with the oslunds after their fire.

i pray that you would forgive me for all of the ways i blew it today. i know there were many. please forgive me and help me make better choices tomorrow. help me not to feel so stubborn when i'm feeling nasty and i think "god wouldn't like this" and do it anyways.

help sean to make it home safely after school and thank you for as hard as he is working for us.

please help us all to sleep great and have a great day tomorrow.

amen...
