Pretty Things

Reading One Thousand Gifts is one of the best things I've ever done in my life.  I am not exaggerating.  It has truly been a huge blessing.  One of the things Ann Voskamp encourages is taking photos and using the camera as a way to document your thankfulness.  I took her advice this morning and went around my house and outdoors looking for beauty--looking for the blessings He so abundantly supplies.

    It is from Ethiopia! I got it from my friend, Joanna (aka Mymeanderings.net). She got it in Korah when she went to meet the baby she is adopting. Good eye!
