A Holy Experience

I've been moved by the book "one thousand gifts" by Ann Voskamp and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a more fuller life and A Holy Experience.

I've joined the dare to list one thousand gifts that God has given:
#1: for generous and hospitable family who takes in the 'powerless' (literally the powerless... we had no power for 36 hours!)
#2: For gracious neighbors and brave friends from church who rescue me with a house full of tea treats and no one to eat them.






#3: The energy of a child and her father wrestling on the floor.


#4: The belly laugh of a 9-month old.
#5: Dampened curls that form on the "little man's" head after a restful slumber.
#6: The sleepy pups soft ears that feel like velvet to the touch.
#7: A tummy full after a long and satisfying meal.
#8: A sink clean and clear of dishes
#9: Babies napping simultaneously and the calmness that washes over my weary  body, rejuvenating it every dual moment they sleep.
#10: The smell of fresh roses
