So.
February 1:
- Pigs - technically, they're pink, but my little brother was so excited to show me the pig cards he has been diligently working on for the past number of days
- Love - generic, but such a blessing!
- Heat - as someone who is frequently cold, the gift of heat is one that I truly appreciate (particularly in the form of a hot water bottle, a hug, or a fireplace)
February 2:
- Books - I love books (if you haven't noticed), and love getting lost in them
- Music - music has been a point of bonding with my father (going to see Les Miserables with him this weekend was one of many highlights) and a gift I don't think I would be able to live without. It fills my day, from eating breakfast in the morning to doing homework through the afternoon and evening
- Pictures from my siblings drawn with love
February 3:
- How appropriate to find gifts in writing on a Sunday, for where else does one find a gift in writing but in the Scriptures? We stand back, amazed at the gift of grace that is demonstrated page after page
- Singing the Psalms - there is such comfort and joy to be found in these words
- Writing itself as an action is a gift - I tend to grow anxious about things and store them up inside of me. Writing serves as a way in which to give up these cares of the day, whether that is through journaling or in finding comfort in the words of others who continually support me
