I love You
I love this family You've given me
I love this life You're given me
My heart overflows...
    so, so many blessings!
Sitting on the back deck with my husband
Listening to the squeals and splashes of my boys playing well together
Reminiscing on a great finale and a great school year
Looking forward to a summer and homeschooling adventure
    full of possibilities
Seeing Your lead of love as I look back
Seeing Your lead of love as  I look ahead
Feeling the sunshine and the breeze
Sensing Your pleasure over me...
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
May my life be a thank offering to You
