I am thankful for my home. I will be honest, I am not thrilled about living in a neighborhood with drunks, druggies, and a convicted pedophile (who has admittedly come on our property and Elmore County Sheriff's Dept. didn't care), but I am sure every neighborhood (even the richest and nicest) have those same kind of residents. Anyway, I am still thankful for this home with which God has blessed us. We have a lot of space. We have a big yard. We have a few acres. Most of all, Ronnie and I have each other. This house is definitely a fixer-upper, but it is a project we get to do together. We pray together here. We laugh together here. We worship together here. God has been so, so good to us. This song by David Crowder sums up my thoughts and feelings: "You make joy out of simple And ordinary things You fill life up with stories I’d never think to dream So this holiday I wanna praise The One who’s making a saint Out of this sinner The One who’s turned me into this thanks giver" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxDKchUybN0
