Counting My Blessings: Week In Review

It was the kids first full week of summer break. We packed in a lot of fun activities and projects.  It has been fun spending the extra time with them.  Thankful for the opportunity to spend time hanging out with my girls.  Jake has busy working on building them a tree-house fort in the woods with some leftover wood we had around.  The kids are VERY EXCITED and have been helping haul wood, tools, and other items back and forth.  I am blessed.  There was so much to be thankful for last week.

I want to be accountable to you so the following are snip-its of some of the things I am thankful for this past week.  Counting My Blessings – Week In Review:

Monday – Thankful for the opportunity to go for a bike ride, play a game, and hike through the woods with the girls today.

Tuesday – Thankful that we were able to get into the dentist this morning to fix Brina’s braces.  Grateful that the girls and I were able to go to the Free Movie, a park, and run some errands.  The girls were a huge help in sorting and carrying a pile of wood down to the area next to their treehouse fort so Jake can have it the next time he gets a chance to work on it.  Jake was sweet today and picked up an organizer for the girls robotic project this summer so we were able to get it off the table.

Wednesday – Thankful for kids who enjoy spending time with me.  We spent the day at home, but the activities they choose to do included reading, building items with legos, games, and more fun!  Tonight we had our Kid Date Night.  Jake went with Brina to Frozen Disney on Ice and had a wonderful time.  I went with Karlie to Frankie’s Fun Park and out to dinner, she loved trying out laser tag for the first time.

Thursday – Thankful for a chance to run errands with the kids today.  It was nice having them with me to talk to and help carry in and put away the groceries.  We even squeezed an activity at the library and got drenched running to the car afterward.  It poured at home too, but after Jake got home we all spent some time working on the treehouse fort.

Friday – Thankful Jake’s thoughtfulness.  My computer was slowing down so he ordered and installed additional ram for me.  He did this without mentioning anything it to me until he was putting it into my laptop.  Love how thoughtful he is.  He always takes such good care of me.

What are you thankful for today?  I encourage you to take the time to write down a few blessings that you have in your life today.  It will help cheer you up and turn your focus on the amazing blessings you encounter each day!
