My 27 Thanks:

1. I woke up to a very sweet boy giving me kisses on my arm.
2. Judah and I spent most of the morning snuggling and playing in bed.
3. We had breakfast in bed too. Judah thought that was awesome.
4. We had absolutely nothing to do today.
5. I was able to watch the entire Mother’s Day service in bed.
6. The stage set looked awesome.
7. The Youth Fine Arts team did an incredible job on their human video. It was very moving.
8. They made it to the National level and even scored top 6 at District level.
9. Today is a very popular day for birthdays! My friend Amy Gramling is celebrating her big day. Amy is one of the sweetest, most laid back friends I have.
10. Jeremy Barton is also celebrating a birthday today! He has been running our Kidmin sound booth since he was 12. I can count on one hand how many times he has missed. He is incredibly faithful and has the sweetest of spirits!
11. The weather is absolutely beautiful today.
12. I had the best, uninterrupted amount of time with my little boy today.
13. My mom and I spent some time today planning our mini vacation trip.

16. The best kids in the world go to Crossroads Church. 
17. Kids who work hard and want to make good grades.

20. They had tons of fun. I am so glad they enjoyed a night out together.
21. Judah and I spent a couple of hours at Mom mom and Pa Pa’s house. We always have a relaxing time over there.
22. Judah got to drive the lawn mower with Pa Pa. He grinned from ear to ear.
23. Gary had a great shift. His work with Chief Schmidt has really increased his level of confidence for his work. I am so proud of him.
24. I can be myself. Besides, everyone else is already taken.
25. God loves me.
26. I am made in the image of God.
27. I am a daughter of the King.
