our own kind of celebration.

like i've been saying over and over again. and over again. God has been so faithful to His promises. and no, not just because He's shown us positive blessings lately. because remember? i would praise Him in the midst of the stormy kind too. or because He's been making things possible. or because He found miley's dollhouse - ok, i just threw that one in there. *wink. it's simply because He is. and that's enough for me.

last night, i wanted to celebrate as a family. i wanted to celebrate and recognize our thankful hearts. i wanted to make sure we were on the same page of realizing the goodness we've been showered with on a daily basis. He is good. He is holy. He is all-powerful. He is.

so here is our own kind of celebration of grateful hearts to our King.








we each made a list of five of the things we are thankful for at the moment.

jessa's included:
Jesus
God
cinderella and all of the princesses
miley
daddy

*cheers

jacob's:
God's provision
beautiful wife *blush
kids (jessa & miley)
job
neighbors (jesse, kristi, & myah)

*cheers

beth's:
jessa's funny stories
miley's crinkly-nose smile
making dinner with joy tonight (sat. nite)
daddy's dedication
every good and perfect gift from above

*cheers

and then we combobulated a list for miley:
i said she would be thankful for clean diapers and her food source
jacob said she would be thankful for her binky and big sister jessa
jessa said she would be thankful for elmo

*cheers
