everyday blessings {2}

22.4.14


don't forget in the valley what He showed you on the mountain. 

learning to see the beauty through the pain, 
opening my eyes to how incredibly blessed i am:

-power and water being on all day today
-using my inner (french) computer geek to help someone with their computer
-communicating in french 
-the harsh beauty that is africa
-A+ on quarterly science test
-a family Skype call last night
-spending time with folks my age for the first time in a month and a half
-laying on the ground looking at the stars late into the night with said friends
-texting with friends on 2 different continents at the same time
-watching frozen for the first time (do you wanna build a snowman?)
-rain for the first time in weeks
-an impromptu frozen concert from a sweet little cousin over skype
-the delighted grins on woman's faces when i respond to their greeting in Jula 
-cleaning the kitchen with my ipod on shuffle
-awesome breakout acapella versions of what makes you beautiful
-new blog designs in the works (yeah!)
-blossoming relationships 

He is risen!
