5 Days Of Thankfulness

Last Sunday our pastor challenged our church to take to social media and post 5 things we were thankful for 5 consecutive days.  This year I really wanted to cultivate more of a grateful heart because it can be so hard some days so this was a great exercise for me to participate in.  You can see them all on my Instagram @pitterpatterart

Day 1:  This peanut may be going home sooner than later. Thankful for each day remaining, but also crazy proud of her parents. Photo cred: the infamous Josh Kelley #5for5CP #fostercare #kelleyfamily7

I’ll insert a big “I’m thankful for Josh Kelley” here because the dude puts up with so much and is pretty much awesome!

And the shirt is from Sevenly.

Day 2:  Thankful God is fun, into the details, provides joy, uses our gifts and connects people like only He can. #swaziland #ngungwane #5for5CP

Day 3:  Thankful today for wonky jack-o-lantern kid smiles, the last few days of summer, pickles, clean water and that we survived back-to-school supply shopping…the struggle was real #5for5CP #hudsonboy

Day 4:  Thankful for the wave pool, sunshine, sunscreen, Sonic happy hour and grace! #5for5CP #thekelleyslovethewavepool #aceofhearts

Day 5:  Thankful for wild healthy kiddos, our local library, work I love to do, rabbit ears which help us get TV channels #nocable and bark thins. #5for5CP #kingsolomon #hudsonboy

And since it’s Friday I thought I would throw in a Day 6:  Thankful for sweet friends!  Love these two and their laughter and fun personalities.

Hope today you choose to be thankful and see how God’s goodness is everywhere.

Have a great weekend.

Happy Friday!

  1. Your shirt is adorable and so is the little leg wrapped around it 🙂 Glad that your story is working out. Our foster care journey has been a little different. It is hard and beautiful and tough. You have a beautiful family.
