Today, I’m thankful for the blessing God has showered on us.
I’m thankful that I found the perfect wardrobe cabinet for us. The old one was too easy for him that he kept on doing this…
Also, I had to change cabinet because my son is growing up so fast and so are his clothes (the size at least, but not the number).
I’m thankful that despite the news of rice shortage in this country, we still have rice during mealtimes.
I’m thankful that after a long 15-hour flight, Houston arrived safely in his training base (at least for the next 3 weeks).
I’m missing him big time can you tell that I’m trying not to get so emo now especially since I couldn’t call him anytime that I want to but I’m thankful for technology that enables me to send SMS to him; and he to me.
I’m thankful that when I ask my son to pray, he can say “The Name Of The Father, The Son, the Holy Spirit, Amen.” His sign of the cross needs improvement though. :-)

I am glad that you were able to find new cabinets that are child proved
Being apart for three weeks is not easy. Glad that you are able to stay in contact though.
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.
Blessings to you and your precious family.

I don’t believe that there’s actually a shortage of rice, Zen… i mean i think it’s only the NFA rice that’s in short supply (understandably people buy them because they are way cheaper than the other varieties) … sometimes the media can be so misleading, huh?!
great that you and Houston still manage to send SMS during his 3-wk long absence. 
kids do grow so fast, don’t they? love his short hair! my son doesn’t like his hair so short like that anymore … lol.
happy thursday, Zen!

I love how you described your son praying. That is so sweet. Children are so eager to learn about God.

A rice shortage? Really? I will have to alert my mother - you can read about she feels about rice here - http://spanielranch.blogspot.com/2007/12/is-rusty-still-in-navy.html
She will be so happy to hear about the shortage.
