When I was growing up, we had a tradition around our dinner table every evening.
We would go around the table with each person giving a "high" and a "low" from their life that day.
Sometimes the "high" would be a positive thing that happened and the "low" would be a less positive thing that happened. Sometimes both the "high" and the "low" would have a more negative feel to them. Sometimes the "high" was truly a high point and the "low" was truly a low point.
I will *try* to start doing this each week. Just giving a list of highs (and maybe even some lows) from the week.

Highs
(You will notice a theme: WARM WEATHER, SUNSHINE, SPRING.)
* I spent time in the yard cleaning up, relaxing, and studying.
*Finding an unexpected surprise....Last year I got some mint from a friend of mine and
wasn't sure if it would come back or not. It did!
*It's time for another baseball season.
*Sitting on my porch swing, anytime really, but especially during my new favorite time of
day.
*Pulling out my warm weather recipes.
*That Together For the Gospel is happening again. Thousands of men are there and I am
happy for them. I am also happy that they post the messages online and I listen at home!
*Playing basketball in the driveway again.
What a great idea! Then I can praise God with you for the highs, and pray for your lows! I definitely enjoyed the sunshine as well, this week, and my high would have to be the glorious celebration of Christ's Resurrection!
ReplyDeleteLOVE that tradition! I want to do that with my own little family someday. Conversations around the dinner table. So so so important! xoxo
