Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report #87

#87 - Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report

If you were following this blog in 2015 then you will be familiar with my "365 Days of Being Thankful" challenge.  I have missed reporting on my thankfulness since I finished my challenge 2 years ago, so I decided to at least give a weekly Thankfulness Report & include a Growth Report also.  Growth in our Christian walk, growth in the garden & growth on this blog.  Finally, I am also including a "Posts From the Past" feature - ENJOY!


This week I have been thankful for my parents, my sister and my nieces.  I am thankful for my husband's clever humor.  I am most thankful that God created smiles and laughter. 





"Be on your guard;  stand firm in the faith;  be men of courage;  be strong.  Do everything in love." 
1 Corinthians 16:13 & 14
Love is the key to living a Christ centered life.

We are still having warmer than normal temperatures and still find ourselves mowing the lawn (almost unheard of in late October in Michigan!).
