More Eucharisteo
I was thinking about adding to my list of Eucharisteo. I think I live it everyday~ these days of grace & thankfulness. It keeps my world in a proper perspective.
21. Canning jars we use for drinking glasses. The ice clinks & the water smells like water should in the glass. The strawberry jam is going quickly this winter so we have more & more jars to drink from.
22. Going through clothes this week. My consignment sale is coming up. I like the rubber maid tubs & piles of clothing. It means we are richer than most of the world.
23. My Bible study I am leading. I am learning so much & the women are blessing me. Each week I wonder if I will have words to share. Each Tuesday night I leave full. Thank you God.
24. I love words. I love stories. I read aloud to many people. Things I wrote & from real books.
25. Pink Lemonade cupcakes made by Demaris for her friends at school. They are the right amount of sweet & tart. Pink icing piled high~ moist cake underneath.
26. Roses. White roses this year for Valentines. I hold them in my hands and I smell them. Joe gets them for me. I am happy.
27. Holding my friend Katies sweet baby. She wears a little pink striped outfit and she smells like a baby should. I get to hold her for a couple of hours. I feel her solid warmth. I see her dimples when she smiles at me. Eucharisteo...
28. Valentines from little people. They are scattered around the house. I sweep them off the floor and Kalani grabs them up as if they were treasure.
29. Cardinals on the suet block. The wild birds gather on the swingset. Birch watches them out the window. Beautiful red amidst the brown of Carolina winter.
30. Being outdoors. Cheeks red in the wind. Birch rides his bike without training wheels. Swinging on the tree swing, Jubilee's hair flies out behind her. Walking down the road my legs burn in the fresh air. Collecting the first batch of frog eggs for this spring. Life at its best.
31. For now my computer is fixed. I like that. Ebay listings finally. Paying for Lerado's classes. Catching up with my far away people.
32. Shoes in my house. The porch. The stairs. The bedroom floor. Big shoes. Littles shoes. Cowboy boots. Pink boots. I am thankful that we have shoes to wear.
33. Singing at pre-school. The wise man built his house upon the rock. We smack our hands together when the foolish man's house on the sand gets flattened. The boys all shout the words.
34. For faith. For choosing joy. For Christ. For life. For laughter.
35. Days when I wish there were 2 of me. I count it for blessing. I have much to do before I am done here.
