I started to post last night, but I was working on finishing my project kinda late and then one of our favorite shows came on. We love the Psych! If you have never watched it you shoule sometime:) So, I will post my thanks from yesteday and today. Yesterday I was thankful for the joy a few snowflakes bring to the face of children ( and myself:) It snowed for a an hour or so. It did not stick to anything, but it was beautiful! In our morning prayer time at school our principal read a verse about seeing God's faithfulness in the changing of the seasons. As I watched the snowflakes fall I was thankful for God's faithful. I am also thankful that time does heal our hearts wounds. I was reminded of something the other day about a difficult time in my life and I realized that the pain was not as bad as it was last year or the year before. Maybe that sounds silly, but I am thankful that we can move past the pain in our life. For today, I am thankful that I finished my last class!!!!! This semester has been very stressful for me, but I made it (Thank You Jesus!) I am also thankful for a husband who is not afraid to tell me to calm down. I over think EVERYTHING to the point of making myself crazy! I am thankful that he helps me out of my incessive worrying.

Well, we are all healthy at the moment. Sam is back in full swing. He also educated me on some fashion rules concerning sweaters. It is finally getting cold around here but most of his long sleeved shirts are too small. I laid out a nice sweater for him to wear yesterday and my 7 year old son says to me, "Is today nerd day or something? Sweaters are nerdishy." I had no idea that sweaters were only worn by nerds, and how did my child even know that! I scanned the cafeteria yesterday at lunch and sure enough I did not see one child wearing a sweater. Sam also asked me this morning if I heard the jingling of bells last night. I told him Santa stopped by to ask us  where we would be spending Christmas this year. He says, "Mom, you and dad were already alseep." He has been informed by his daddy that Santa is not real, but I still like to play with him about it. I am not sure he is totally convinced that he is not real. Emma is still loving school and she is just a little sponge. She remembers everything! She is learning Bible verses and I love to hear her say them. The other day Chloe disobeyed ( I know hard to believe, right?) and Emma says, "Mom, Chloe is not following the 'C' verse!" I asked her what she meant by that, "Children obey your parents in the Lord." It was so sweet. Chloe is trying so hard to be good, but she is having a rough time. She acts kinda like a teenage girl. She rolls her eyes and shrugs her shoulders when she does not want to answer you and she has not started calling me "mom." 'Momma' or 'mommy' is no longer her word for me. Once again, she sounds like a teenager when she says "mommmm". She is talking so much these days and we never know what she is going to say!

Well, I better get to bed. 5:30 comes aweful early in the morning.
