1. Ironically, even though I'm late with this post, I'm thankful for deadlines. This month is full, and I praise God for showing us how a sense of urgency can increase our productivity.
2. The birth of my husband 40 years ago yesterday, and the brave woman who gave him up so he could be raised in the unbelievable family God had picked. If Roe v. Wade had been decided before 1968, my brilliant husband might well have been murdered.
3. For the birth of my Dad 74 years ago Saturday, for his sense of humor, work ethic, care for the helpless things of the world, and the cards he sends that mean so much.
3. That everything went right for John's birthday!
4. That we got our tree early this year, and it is the most beautiful tree we have ever had.
5. That my children express gratitude.
6. For the new arrangement (and paint) in the living room -- the result of vision and hands-on help from three dear friends. I can't look at this room without thinking of all of them and thanking God for the Proverbs 31 women with whom He has blessed me.
7. That we have steadfast old friends and delightful new ones.
8. That my mom is an encourager.
9. For the sudden vivid reminder during a migraine that this will pass but the Word of God endures forever.
10. Our many friends who have chosen "hard" paths for the glory of God, but would never see it that way.

Mrs. Rabe, can I use number two in an argument against abortion please? I thought I should ask, but it'd help I think. It's on goodreads.
I would be greatly honored!
Are people arguing with you on Good Reads? Oh, goodie. I'd like to see it. Where is it? I have a feeling you might be good at constructing a case, Miss Robin. Just a hunch, from having known you all these years.
lol...because I'm so stubborn? Poor Mrs. Rabe, having to put up with me all those times. :D
