There's nothing like the warmth of a summer afternoon
Walking to the sunlight, and being cradled my the moon
Catching fireflies at night
Building castles in the sand
Kissing Mam's face goodnight
And holding Daddy's hand
Thank you Lord, how could I ask for more?
Running barefoot in the grass
A little hide and go seek
Being so in love, that you can hardly eat
Dancing in the dark, when there's no one else around
Being bundled 'neath the covers, watching snow
Fall to the ground
Thank you Lord, how could I ask for more?
So many things I thought would bring me happiness
Some dreams that are realities today
Such an irony the things that mean the most to me
Are the memories that I've made along the way
So if there's anything I've learned
From this journey I am on
Simple truths will keep you going
Simple love will keep you strong
Cause there are questions without answers
Flames that never die
Heartaches we go through are often blessings in disguise
So thank you Lord, oh thank you Lord
How could I ask for more?
This is a Cindy Morgan song. Apparently it's so old that I can't even find it to play for you all.
Every time I hear it, I get that warm fuzzy feeling inside followed by a little taste of guilt.
Why do I ask for more?
Just trying to be thankful today!
Here's one thing that made me cry today that I am thankful for.
"A Modern Girls Guide to Bible Study" by Jen Hatmaker.
If you haven't read it and you are a woman, you should snatch this book up.

I love it....but I have to admit. I thought you wrote a poem! I need Jen's Bible study, do you know where you can buy it?
Surely Mardel carries it, but I also linked Jen's website. It's so good Becki. Wish we could do it together!
Molly,
I LOVE this song! It was actually one of the songs I had sung in our wedding -- it's just so beautiful, and so true! It's amazing how music can minister to our souls, isn't it? I think you and I are very much alike in that sense. I miss you, and I'm praying for you!
