A Few of My Favorite Things

My title makes me think of "The Sound of Music."  Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes; Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes; Silver white winters that melt into spring; These are a few of my favorite things  Are you singing it now too?

Mr. Incredible cannot stand that movie.  Anyway, sometimes it's the little things in our life that are some of our favorite things.  One of my favorite things is my charm bracelet that my man blessed me with years ago.Through the years, he and my girls have added special charms to my bracelet.  I have charms that represent my girls, graduation from college, teaching school, when we built our home, gardening, places we've been blessed to visit, my faith, etc.  but my favorite charm by far is the one that says, "Expect a Miracle!" 

Most of you know that our oldest daughter suffered for an entire year with excruciating headaches until finally she had to undergo brain surgery.  Through it all the Lord kept encouraging our hearts to "Expect a Miracle!"  And we did...and oh how He blessed.  She is perfect and we will never stop praising the One who did it all...nothing is impossible with God! 

Naturally, this charm is one of my favorites:

  3. That is so cool! A constant reminder of God's AWESOMENESS!

    I have a bunch of favorite things. One being the engagement ring my hubby picked out for me 15 years ago, all by himself without any help from anyone.

    Oh and I was totally singing with Julie a minute ago. LOL!
    Have a super day my friend.

  4. This past September when I turned, ahem....50, my Dream Boy & our 2 Dream Sons' surprised me with a Pandora Charm Bracelet. It's become my favorite too - filling it with sweet reminders of different events that I remember every time I wear it.
