M is for . . .

November 21st, 2007 at 10:07 am by Dee O'Neil Andrews

I'm thankful for both my Mom and my son Mark.  They both make my life much better than it would have been otherwise.  Of course, in reality, I would have no life at all if it were not for my mom.  

She is nearly 86 and still as sharp and strong in the Word as she has ever been.  She is a woman of faith and love.

Mark is my miracle child.  He was born 7 1/2 weeks prematurely with hyaline membrane disease (his lungs wouldn't open to accept oxygen) and he wasn't expected to make it.

I prayed to God as Samuel's mother, Hannah, prayed for him (to have a chld) and promised God I would dedicate my life to Mark and to the Lord if He would give Mark life.  And God did.  Mark is now a fine young man with a beautiful wife and three "charmed" girls, Zoe, Hannah & Kayci, as his wife Lynn calls them. 

Another good "M" word I'm thankful for is Memories.  I'm thankful that we can remember good things while ignoring the bad.  Good memories are a wonderful addition to our lives.  

What are some "M" words you're thankful for today?  Share them with us in comment!

Cheers & Blessings to each of you today!  Dee

    Moms. Especially the mother of my children!!

    I would go with memories as well (I’m not being too original on this one), and add milk to the list. I love milk with the sweets my body demands.

    Music and musical instruments.

    ‘M’ is for music! I love it, almost all different kinds of it! I was in band from jr. high all the way through college. Yep, it’s official, I’m band nerd! Music…the universal language! I just love it!
