My Day - #251-256

I enjoyed knowing it was a nice day. (#251) Honestly, I didn't get outside to enjoy the weather until after dinner and by then it was chilly, but somehow just knowing spring is coming gave me a flicker of happiness. 

I accomplished quite a bit today. (#252) It's odd.  Recognizing that I accomplished a lot given the stage in life I am at and feeling content rather than comparing my now to my then.  I'm glad I am able to do that now, but it is still a bit odd. 

A friend stopped by today. (#253) I really enjoyed our visit.  Plus, she brought gifts! (#254) She brought me a toaster and a framed photo of her family. Both are cherished.  I have been wanting a toaster for almost a year. She also brought pants for my impossible to fit daughter. (#255) My beautiful Angelica has long legs, a tiny waist, and she is allergic to nickel.  It is difficult to find anything that doesn't have to be modified after purchase, but she did!  

And then there's Miracle. (#256) I couldn't put here what the struggle was and I therefore can't put here what the praise is, but I am so very thankful for the work God is doing and has done in her heart recently.  The scripture that says "he makes all things new" is truly being exemplified in her life before my eyes.
