Comfort of Home

After being at my mom and dad's house for almost two months, we will be moving into our new home this week. It has been a blessing for us to be able to stay here, but it will be good to let them have their house back.

I am focusing my Multitude Monday Post on my amazing mom and dad.

holy experience

#16 Experiencing the Magic of Disney with them in May.

#17 My mom loves doing the dishes.

#18 My dad's amazing cooking and my mom's baking.

#19 Waking up in the same house I grew up in. A comfort during a very stressful season.

#20 Their patience with our piles of clothes, toys, etc. in the middle of their home.

#21 Sitting at the table with my mom late at night. Her with a book in her hand while I type away at the computer.

#22 Sharing the kitchen with my dad to prepare a supper for the whole family.

#23 The love they show the girls even when they are driving us all crazy.

#24 The love they show each other.

#25 The excitement they have in their voices when they tell people that we are moving home.


Thank you for everything Mom and Dad. I love you!

Such a blessing to have family like that in hard times. My husband thinks he knows your husband somehow - he recognized your last name. Sorry, I think this is one of those "itches" that just needs to be scratched by asking the question.
I really and honestly love your blog! I read a few of your posts - esp. love the one on "Created for Him" and the one on TV for kids. Great stuff! :-)

Much to be thankful for - I so want my kids to develop that heart of gratitude and you are really showing that it comes from seeing gratitude exemplified. Thanks!
