gratitude challenge day 10

I have much to be thankful for today. After a miserable first quarter at a new school, we re-enrolled the girls at their former school and they started there today. I'm so thankful for the many friendly faces that greeted them -- and me-- and the ease with which they appear to have slipped back into their old routines.

I'm also thankful for the the opportunity to witness spiritual growth in my children. Tonight after BSF, Sydney told me how she realized that the reason for the daily discussion questions is not to impress the teacher or the other kids with her answers, but to cause her to grow closer to God.

Overall, a happy and significant day in the lives of my children. And I am grateful.

A very grateful thing, indeed! This is such a groovy idea that I may have to steal it! And be grateful for it! :)
