Today is my *cough* my 34 birthday. :) Most days I don't feel 34. LOL

I have gotten some nice gifts. I posted my dad's gift in the last post, but I also got shopping money from my mom. I was able to get two nice denim skirts that are very cute! My husband is going to take me out to eat and then do some shopping for some shoes and such. Looking forward to that. :)

I am thankful for a lot of things this year...

Thankful for my sight, which I lost briefly in 07.

Thankful for my husband of 13 yrs

Thankful for my son of 12 yrs

Thankful for my family

Thankful for people listening to God in their life and being obedient to His will

Thankful to live in the country

Thankful for the beautiful leaves this year

Thankful for the simple things in life

Today also marks another birthday. This day 10 yrs ago my husband and I were born again. We were baptized together on this day.

Funny story...

The particular church we attended then wore white robes to be baptized in. Well hubby wore his smiley face boxers underneath. The WHOLE congregation got to enjoy those! LOL So funny!

Hope everyone has a safe day today. If you celebrate Halloween, please be careful. Enjoy this last day of October. :)

Many of us make agreements with satan and we don't even realize it. It may start out small like a small thought popping in your head.

Why? Well, just look at them. They have beautiful bodies that seem to move effortlessly. I made an agreement with satan that my body is just not up to par. It's just not good enough. I went from a small thought of "wow, they are beautiful" to "I'm not that beautiful...I don't have those nice curves... I could never be graceful like that" Those are all satan's lies and I AGREED with them. Sure, I don't look like that, but I don't have to fall for the lie that my body and grace are any less good. But, to keep those thoughts at bay...I just don't watch it. Another example would be realizing your
