I think 389 is my favorite today! There just isn't anything better than hearing someone else share their blessings and gifts. I can't explain what it does to my heart, but it seems to double the blessings, doesn't it? They get to keep theirs, but somehow, they now become yours, too. There are many times I come to your list and can pick out about 5 or 6 that I want to add to mine. They meant that much! I really don't think people realize what it means to others to read these.
Thank you so much for posting yours. I really needed to be here today. You are my first, much needed stop, and that field of buttercups did for my soul what nothing else could do. Wish I was standing there with you!
Wonderful picture! And loved the list + scripture at the top...one of my favorites! I try to comment - at least to the right and to the left - of where I land at Ann's on Mondays...so glad to have come to visit...and I am intrigued by your books, too! I will have to be checking those out!
Blessings...
Hi, I clicked over from Ann’s today and your verse - Every good and perfect gift is from above.
James 1:17
I heart that verse – coming down from the Father of Lights… it’s like Bible taffy. And of your list my favorite thank you this week was 408. a field of a million, yellow buttercups (because – well – so that’s what a million buttercups looks like) {smile} Thank you for this, I hearted it. God Bless you and all of yours Kristin.
Thanks for the encouragement on my first post! I do truly hope that it is something that I keep up with! Reading your list made me realize just how many I could have added to mine today! That made me start thinking about next weeks already! I would personally like to kick back in that field of yellow buttercups and just watch those magnificent clouds roll by!
Kristin,
Although I am not a big tea drinker, I liked the way you described your love for tea in #385. I think it's how you ended it . . . "It's all good." :)
You surely do have many blessings on your list. I am currently reading this book, "One Thousand Gifts," but I haven't making a list. Maybe some day . . .
Blessings,

Love your list! Especially the waterproof mascara. ;-) Happy Monday.

What a beautiful blog you have here...so good to meet you from Ann's! Thanks you for coming by my place and for your encouraging comment. I'd love to hear more about your journey to actually writing books. That is one of my goals.
