Beauty Catchup

I am so behind on my beauty post challenge. But I have noticed different things around me that abtain beauty. Sunday my husband preached about expecting great things from God. I love knowing that I have a Father in Heaven that I can go to and I can talk to Him and KNOW that He hears me. I love knowing that I can expect an answer from Him. I know that if I obey His Holy Word that I can expect blessings from Him. I don't know how some people live such hopeless lives. They may pray, but they pray with a doubtful heart. They have the mind set of "i'll pray, but it probably won't due any good" How sad is that?
so that is one of the Beauties that I have found, Expecting God to do great things.
The other beauty is in pain.
Josiah has been teething. His 4 top teeth are coming in all at once and he has been sooooo fussy and just not feeling well. The beauty in this is that he has been so snuggly. He'll just lay his head on my shoulder and sometimes he will just fall asleep. I love it. I love kissing the tope of his head and feeling his warm cheek on my shoulder or on my chest. It is the sweetest kind of love.
Beauty in our weather. I love living in New Mexico. It isn't freezing *at least not in our little town* and the sun is almost always shining. I love it. It's just beautiful year round. It get's hot in the summer but it is a dry heat and when it gets hot, usually we go take our boat out on the lake and have a picnic.
There is just so much beauty in our every day lives. Every blessing is beautiful. Every prayer answered, every smile you receive from your kids, every kiss you can give to your husband.
I see Beauty in my relationship with my husband. We have are days, but more than anything we have a strong and healthy relationship.
I'm a very blessed person and every day that I wake up, I am faced with beauty all around and it continually reminds me just HOW blessed I am.
