Ever feel like you're being watched?  Ha ha ha.  Well, this guy, our 6 year old ragdoll cat does a lot of watching and even whining!  Yep, you read that right - whining.  He actually has a quiet "muew" and has been known to head but a closed door to be near us.  However, when it comes time for me to do my chores, he seems to just hang out and watch, which is what he was doing here..

I am grateful for our bundles of fur, though.  When I'm able to a take a moment and sit quietly, I can always count on the company of one of them - no judgments, just the desire to be petted and near.  Isn't that what we all want, though: to be known, acknowledged and near?  I am so grateful that there is One who knows me, loves me and will never leave me and I can be content in that.  "...be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5

It's Thirsty Thursday!

The clouds are rolling in and I am hoping for a big, beautiful thunderstorm!  We need the water here and I just love the way the clouds form in the sky.  For some reason it's always fascinated me.  I am so grateful that I am able to enjoy fresh water throughout my day: I rise to drink a glass of water, shower and refresh, use water in preparation for my meals and then get to drink it throughout the day providing hydration to my cells for better health.  This is something I don't take for granted.  What are you thankful for today?
