Today I decided to post about being thankful for Life Group. We meet every Thursday night. Even though it's at my house tonight and that means I have to do a little cleaning, I am looking forward to it (Steph - I'll try to make sure the bathroom isn't quite as clean this time so you don't hear about it from Jack! LOL.)! It is so refreshing for me to know that I will have at least one night a week of adult interaction and conversation (outside my marriage, of course). I can have a rough day and know that I have something to look forward to by day's end. The gals in my group have little guys around Josiah's age and so it makes it that much easier for us all to relate and get along. Sometimes it's crazy (like last week w/ the kids and me with no husband tagging along), but it is still a blast! Sometimes it is really serious and deep. Sometimes it's just encouraging and praying for one another. Regardless, I am always blessed by it in some way. I noticed a huge difference in my personal life during the time we took off over the holidays. I am so thankful that God created us to live in community and that I have the opportunity to do that in the context of my Life Group! Love you guys! See ya tonight....
ps - to add to yesterday's thanksgiving - I got to feel my little nephew kicking!
Wow, I am just now reading your blog after we canceled Life Group for tonight. I'm sorry! I really do enjoy our time in Life Group as well. Thanks for being understanding about needing a breather tonight. I look forward to next week. Just freeze the potatoes! They'll keep for another week right? :-)
