So Many Reasons to Give Thanks

I know it's been a ridiculously long time since I posted a thankful list, so these go WAY back to when we first returned to China in the fall. I may have to divide this list! Here's #733-759

People at the food market remembering me
God speaking to Ethan through the youth group message
A successful pudding pie
new family traditions
like-minded friends
more friends that our kids know what to do with
my bike to replace Ethan's stolen one
the excitement of a new school year
date night
God's provision in so many things
feeling the weight of jet lag lift
the kids playing together really well
milk delivery
chocolate chips
early morning quiet house
new printer than can photocopy
clear skies
a new fun restaurant
teaching speech to the 5th and 6th grade class
answers to prayer
faithful friends
sweet times with the kids one on one
great fiction
fun fabrics at the market
on a new adventure
with great friends
settling into a routine


That seems to cover us settling back into life in China. More to come soon.
