No Need Of Spoil: Counting 1000 Blessings

1 1006 Boy rapt at seeing lights

1007 So thankful to have found these! These have been missing since Wednesday. My boy has gotten into the habit of throwing things away and I didn't realize this until this week. Thankfully we figured it out before taking the trash out. I began to have a suspicion that's where his shoes dissapeared to, and there they were in the trash.
