This week I am so thankful for:
** Daniel's good health. His labs won't come back until early next week, but the Doctor said everything looked great.
** For the special time Daniel and I spent feeling our baby have the hiccups. It was so fun to share a laugh with him.
** That it's apple season here in Vermont!! Fall means that HoneyCrisp apples are back. These are pretty much the best apples known to man.
**Judah said "I love you" to me for the first time, all on his own. I have been waiting his whole life for that moment, my heart absolutely melted.
** For Daniel's good secure job. This particular job has been filled with long hours, and plenty of sacrifices, but we are so grateful for his wonderful career.
** For the special time Eve and I can spend together each day reading. We just finished the "Trumpeter Swan" which was an exceedingly fun book to read.
** That Daniel doesn't mind killing spiders for me. I shake at the sight of them.
** For our marriage. That the love is deep and faithful, but also because he likes me. And we just have so much fun being together.
I am so glad Iris hosts this every week. It really helps me to focus on how grateful I am for all sorts of things in my life - little and big.
This week the theme is Grace - the perfect theme for me. I have needed an abundance of God's grace this week, and He has freely given it to me. I am so grateful, aren't you?

I agree that Honey Crisp are the best apples! I just bought some yesterday! Glad things look good for hubby's health! I am so loving your Caramel Corn receipe!
This is an awesome list. I wish I lived next door. I would be over to share an apple and hug you. Thank you for sharing your heart and your life with me. Wonderful
Bless you dear one, glad your husbands health is good.
time being spent with the ones that you love is always precious!
Blessings ... :)
How awesome that you and Daniel had the opportunity to feel your baby. Although it is a very cool time ago for me, I remember the moments when we both just sat down to fell our baby...
The first time "I love you" is so precious.
I wish we would be able to get Vermont apples here, but they are not shipped to the SW--we only get Washington apples here.
And yes, grace is a beautiful thing, especially His grace.
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.
Be blessed today and always.
Thanks for visiting me. I think I just found another blog I'm going to read!
An Air Force couple AND homebirth? Sweeeet. :-) Me too.
I'll never forget the first time my oldest told me "I love you." There is nothing like it coming from the lips of a little one. :-)
My daughter and I are reading the same book! I love when she lets me read to her even though she can read on her own. It's a special time to spend together.
I love your list and I enjoy reading about your sweet family.
