peanut butter and raisins

I just had the opportunity to make Josh a peanut butter and raisin sandwich.
If I had offered someone one they probably would have given me a strange look, been disgusted, or turned me down... but not Josh. Not only was josh excited to receive his sandwich, but when he noticed that there were raisins inside he laughed, danced and shouted!
What gives us our sense of disgust?
I wish I were more like a toddler who was so care free and adventurous.

I continually fall in love with this boy! He is such a perfect little son. We have so much fun together and I feel like we are becoming great friends already.

prayer

Heavenly Father, I want to thank You so much for all the wonderful things that you have done for me in my life.I am so excited for the plan that You have for me and that You are working through me everyday.
I thank You for my family. I thank You that they are blessed and healthy and that they will not succumb to the pressures of this world but will follow he path of peace and love that you offer to us so freely.
I thank You that for those who do not feel Your peace and love will be given the opportunities for someone to show them what Christ looks like through their speech and actions.
I thank You that You know what's best for our lives and the blessings you give us when we follow with Your plan and not ours.
God, I love You.
In Jesus Name.
Amen.

spring IS here

I came across this picture today. It just so happened to be taken on this day

3 years ago. 

I have complained and commented about this years weather all "spring." 

Wondered why trees were not budding, why my beautiful flowers have not bloomed...  

Then I saw this picture. 

To me, the picture told me to be quite. Just appreciate what is here. Now!

I quite often get too carried away about complaining about little, meaningless things instead of just sitting back admiring what is in front of me in the now.
