Joy Dare
Monday, March 19
#234 watching my fearless baby explore the world; wonderful and a bit terrifying but so very good for me!
#235 chocolate--it really is a treat and a comfort
#236 grace from my family when dinners seem like a series of flops lately!
#237 my baby's determination to make me laugh during bedtime routine
#238 a cute conversation my son had for quite a length of time with the toy lizard
Tuesday, March 20
#239 strength to navigate today when no one had much sleep last night
#240 getting a few things cleared from the accumulated clutter
#241 smooth bedtimes
#242 being piled on by two boys
Wednesday, March 21
#243 dinner with the group that has been meeting at our home and the connection that grew among the group
#244 my husband's effort and success at fixing our oven!
#245 God's grace for a hard day

#246 healing for the serious dizziness I was experiencing yesterday
#247 2 Cor. 12:9--He keeps pressing this on my heart
#248 a good cry to let go at the end of the day
#249 a husband who lets me just talk about the day
Friday, March 23
#250 a walk to the park with my boys on a quiet and gray morning
#251 my son's love for even the simplest natural treasures
#252 hearing my son initiating prayer for us and his brother!
#253 watching my son plop down on a bus stop bench next to a total stranger and tell me he is just enjoying the view (trees and the park across the street) of all the wonderful things God created!
#254 ice cream with my boys
#255 talking to my dearest friend across the globe and seeing how beautifully and gracefully motherhood fits on her!

#256 my husband taking the boys out for breakfast treats--a gift to them and a gift to me of a quiet house to catch up on a bit of sleep after a rough night
#257 a God who knows my baby and his every need when I struggle to figure it out
#258 my son requesting a Daddy date to play some baseball
#259 my son's love of cuddle time!
#260 my son's excitement over "bed reading" privileges

#261 "The riches of Your love will always be enough" (Forever Reign)
#262 my boys feeling secure in Children's Church
#263 family wrestle/play time on the bed

Taking the joy dare has been a challenge, but it is changing me, which has not been without some pain involved. Maybe I should have put mine in a blog instead of a journal.
It has been a big challenge and so good for me, too! It has been good for me to blog it--pretty vulnerable and a bit of accountability. This last week hit some days that were a real challenge for me to set my mind this way! Have so much to grow in seeing through His eyes and walking in grace and gratitude!
