“Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.”

This time of year we are reminded to give thanks for our blessings. Each year I make a list. It’s an ever growing list… and did you know if you write down three things you are thankful for each day you will count over 1,000 each year?  (for ideas of where to find your blessings, try taking the joy dare: http://annvoskamp.com/joy-dares/)

I love counting, maybe it’s the reason I love inflicting math on my children. But I love to count things. I counted over 15 kids who came out to our teen basketball night last week. Last year we counted 245 seats at Midwest Theater shows, provided to us for free by sponsors. Counted 71 families in our Membership, with all family members totaling over 350 individuals. Counting 169 students from Preschool to High-School.  So many blessings to count.

So thankful to God for this group and it’s growth. Thankful for a husband and children to share this journey with. Thankful for the freedom to teach our children at home… to teach them to count. Will you count with us?
