Laurie at Woman Taking a Stand is hosting this week’s Thankful Thursday. PSALM 113:3 “From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised.” SIMPLICITY… now there’s a word that you don’t hear too much anymore these days.

I am thankful for the internet and email. While it’s been a while since we’ve heard from D, I am still able to keep him updated on a daily basis how things are going here. It allows him to feel more…
