Thankfulness in May

The thankful list for May:

* Spring has sprung!

* Our baby girl will be here in less than a month!

*  York Peppermint Patty Ice Cream from Baskin Robbins (mmmmmmmm….goood)

*  The members of Colesville and Rockville Presbyterian churches who threw wonderful and generous baby showers.

*  Serving God, Saving the Planet by J. Matthew Sleeth

*  Joe Purdy’s “Washed Away”

* The return of The Office and Scrubs–funny times, funny times

*  Re-connecting with old friends on Facebook

* Seeing Eddie Izzard, one of the greatest comedic minds of all time, with John Weicher and his sister Jean at Constitutional Hall in D.C.  I laughed so hard that I got a headache and almost peed in my pants.

* The James Hubert Blake High School’s stunning production of “Les Miserables”; David Tuttle, a youth at Colesville, is a gifted actor who delivered a memorable and incredible performance in 4 different roles; Katya Ankudinov, another youth at CPC, who was a brilliant member of the Ensemble and Lucas Murphey, CPC youth, who played with an orchestra that sounded, note for note, like the original musical score. Inspirational and moving.

* “Do You Hear the People Sing?” from Les Miserables…one of my top 10 songs of all time; gives me goosebumps.

* You, ole faithful readers of this blog.

    Eddie Izzard made the list and I didn’t…hmmm.

    Thanks okay, I’m glad you have enough to be thankful for that your wife doesn’t have to be on the list every month!

    I love that you do a “thankful” list each month. I think I might steal that idea….

    Eddie Izzard is awesome, and so is Weicher. That must have been a blast.

    You and yours are in our prayers as you enter the final push (but don’t push yet!) of pregnancy.

    If you almost peed your pants, my pregnant wife doesn’t have a prayer.
