Blessings!

So many small blessings are happening in our lives right now.  Although things have been better...  I feel so encouraged by the little things in a way that I would previously have taken for granted.
So that I don't go on and on.... Take a picture walk and see what has made me smile this week!

 Hubs got my hint from a previous blog post and ordered me several books for my summer reading pleasure :-)

 I also received so many words of encouragement, thoughtful gifts, and lots of goodies for Teacher Appreciation Week!

And of course the KISD grant money that I won at school to spend in my classroom!  YAY!  My Kindergarteners, team, and I were all very excited about this big win!!!

Last, but not least, the BIG news of the week.  We received word today that our rental home (which has been a HUGE thorn in our side recently) has been purchased.  Although the new tenants cannot get qualified, they are going to do a lease to own program and paid the downpayment and signed the paperwork today!  The BIGGIE is that they are buying it AS IS!!!!  Right when we were about to pour about $5,000 into renovating the house.  And another kicker is that the financial offer they made on the home is far more than we ever anticipated, especially since it currently has no flooring or even a fence! (We were just beginning the demo)  This truly is an answered prayer!  So thankful for the little things!

What blessings have you encountered this week?
