It's a Place of Gratefulness

I am thankful:

-that my baby is safe with Jesus - not in pain and/or struggling to breathe in NICU
-that my sister and mom and PC kept trading places in the ER with me so I wasn't ever alone
-that neither PC nor myself allowed bomb #2 to threaten our marriage
-that bomb #3 wasn't worse than it was - because it could have been absolutely horrendous
-that my family was nearby when life exploded last week
-for friends that support me in prayer, and phone calls, and emails, and texts, and visits, and hugs, and... 
-that I'm alive
-for friends that extend grace to me and my family in so many, many ways
-that God's mercies are new every morning
-that I made it home in time to see the cherry tree begin to blossom
-that I have a husband who holds me when I cry, who makes me laugh in spite of everything, and who is forcing me to take it easy - even when I feel useless - because I know he's right, and I'll heal faster if I listen to him
