Philippians 4:13

Sometimes, just when you think you've lost all hope in humanity, your child steps up to the plate and hits it out of the park.  And you get to pat yourself on the back because you know you've had something to do with it.

My middle daughter had some friends over last night and they were in the basement painting.  Kinda like the Paint Nights you see that have become all the rage, but they don't limit themselves to the one painting that everyone else does.  They do their own.  I currently have poppies in my downstairs bathroom, the girls have a jellyfish and a turtle (needs to be hung) in their bathroom.  But this morning, I found this on my kitchen counter:


No request, no suggestion, no nothing.  She just knows that I carry that verse with me everywhere I go.  So she made sure I could wake up to it.

Yup...my kids have proven to me that they are without a doubt my greatest blessings.
