Quietly waiting to wrap around
Until the night sends its darkest hound.
In which comfort is drawn
Like love sent from beyond.
There is nothing more beautiful than a mother’s love.

This week I am grateful for the lovely quilt that my mother made me when I was a teenager.
Check out the original Thankful Thursday. (I will update the link when able.)

Today I’m grateful for all the quilts my mom has made over the course of her life. She’s made one for each of her children. She’s made some for her dad and now she’s making them for her grandchildren.
I am extra grateful for this quilt as it keeps me warm with the winter coming and the nights freezing!
Check out the original Thankful Thursday as well.
It’s that time again this week, the time where I post pictures of things I’m grateful for! I hope that they are as enjoyable for you as they have been for me.
Here I go:
Eggs on homemade bread
Star quilt made by Mom with love
Family Game Night
Nephews’ School Christmas Program
(the kid in the green shirt facing the camera waving is my eldest nephew…if you can see him)
My elder sister’s talent and sense of humor

This Thursday has been a good day for me emotionally but kind of dizzying physically. (Just one of those days where my vertigo is worse than usual.) But even with that, I’m happy today, happier partly because I just am and partly because I’ve been looking forward to this posting challenge for the past few days.
If you haven’t read the original Thankful Thursday post (http://mithriluna.wordpress.com/2014/05/15/thankful-thursday-a-mothers-day-story/) head on over and check it out! It certainly brightened my day! (grins)
