    Happy Birthday, Gussy! I’m thankful for so much, it’s hard to pick just one this morning – but I’m gonna have to go with the fact that we serve a creative God. He could’ve just set the world in motion and called it “good,” but He poured His creative heart into His work, into His creation, into us! And now as image-bearers, we get to reflect that creativity back in what we make, what we write, what we do, and even in how we interact with others! How wonderful that we’re not robots – so, yes – I’m thankful for God’s creative heart and mind!

    I am most thankful for my husband bc even when I’m snappy he still comes alongside me and helps me to fold the mounds of clean clothes. Really, he is infinitely patient and because I don’t handle stress well and usually do get sharp, he hangs in there anyway. This quietness is a better reminder to check my attitude more than any yelling would be.

I apologize if my post doesn’t make a lot of sense, but the baby was up 4 times last night & I’m waiting for the coffee to be ready. But all the hard work, lack of sleep, extra 30 lbs, fingerprints on my fridge & someone’s ABC’s written on my bedsheets (we won’t name names, but I know who it was!) … it’s all worth it for one little hug & whispered “I love you mommy”

    Happy Birthday Gussy from New Zealand!!!!
    I love your daily inspiration and seeing you achieve your goals – and sharing in your love-filled life. I’m thankful for realising at 36 that my life wasn’t what I wanted and having the courage to leave a bad marriage and having the strength to create the inspired life I dreamed of. Now at 39 I cherish each day, my daughter, my craft time and my little beach cottage.
    I’d love to share your birthday gifts – way down here on the other side of the world we don’t have anything as gorgeous and RUFFLED like your bags and purses. Please put my name down for gift three – we don’t get the gorgeous mag here either and I’d love to be inspired by it.
    Much love and blessings
    x Niki

    Happy Birthday!

    I’m thankful for my family and closest friend. My life has been a spinning circus on a wheel the past few months. One thing after another and nothing has gone right. If it weren’t for my family and friend with support and advice I’d be a wreck.

    Happy Birthday, Gussy! I’m thankful that I was able to be offered a job in sunshiny Florida, received relocation & get to enjoy sunny warm weather and palm trees on a daily basis now! Now if I can just get my fiance a job, so he can move down here with me. That’s the tough part…being apart. Haven’t seen my sweetie since the last week of October. :(

  631. Jen says

    July 5, 2011 at 3:26 pm

    Happy birthday!! What a great giveaway! Odd as this sounds, I’m grateful that I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer (at age 24) earlier this year. It’s the biggest and scariest challenge I’ve been faced with so far and it’s taken a lot away from me but it has changed me for the better in so many ways–I’ve started pursuing my dreams and stopped taking the small stuff for granted (I’ll always be grateful that my diagnosis gave me the kick in the pants I needed).

  632. stephanie says

    July 5, 2011 at 3:27 pm

    Of course I’m thankful for my family… but right now… I’m really thankful for seedless watermelon! We get one every week and after cutting it up it gives us 5-6 containers of juicy sweet amazingness (not a word… should be). It’s been 90+ degrees here for a while (like all of may, june and now july) and because I stay at home with our almost 3 year old, we need a really nice refreshing snack when we’re outside playing. Happy Birthday again!

I am thankful for my Savior, Jesus, Who lived and died to save *me* (and you)! I am thankful for the gift that is my husband and each of my beautiful children. I am thankful for clean water to drink, a cozy house to live in and a vehicle to get around in (as so many in this world go without)! :)

    Happy Birthday, Gussy! I have to say, I am so impressed with you since I found you over at our Home Ec class – you deserve to be uber-successful!

    I am thankful for my fabulous husband who is so supportive of my crazy, obsessive ways, especially when it comes to thrift-store shopping. Example, today I found an amazing armchair, bought it, tied it into our little Prius, and now I have to figure out some way to get it all the way home – 2.5 hours away!
