Blessings upon Blessings!

So after a week of trying to find normalcy in my life again, I am getting close to being there. I have promised myself (and some of you) that I will routinely take the time to jot down some notes and post them beginning today. This was the first day that I led worship at Beulah UMC and found some wonderful people there…and while it was a blessing, my big blessing today came from the fact that I had many of my ‘daughters’ with me. Samantha had picked Hannah and Annett up at Lambert Field on Thursday evening and brought them home...she stayed until after church today. In addition one of Sam's friends from McKendree U visited with her and she stayed for church. So, if we had been giving out prizes today, we would have scored: my family took up two pews, traveled the farthest (from Germany), and were the most precious (okay, my bias is coming thru now!). Nevertheless, it was a blessing to have most of my girls with me today. This fact becomes evident as Sam returns home, Annett leaves for Texas later this week, and on Thursday we take Hannah to Springfield for her orientation to UIS…it won’t be long until the house will be half-empty again (although probably not any quieter!). That was my blessings for today…what was yours?
