Thankful Thursday



This Week I'm Grateful:

1. For the blessings and lessons that have entered into my heart this week
2. For the wonderful time spent with hubby and Princess Charlie. We've had some very loving conversations this week.
3. That the pain in my back has been removed and I've been able to exercise All week!
4. For every morning I've been awakened by the birds singing. This is indeed a sweet treat for me!
5. That our bills are paid and we are able to spread love to others who are battling life threatening diseases.



For those who are new to my blog I wanted to introduce to you my very fist blog and family mission called "A Fiveoh4 Uplifting." Together as a family we create goody bags for ill children in hospitals world wide. We also create these for children who are currently living in homeless shelters.

I also participate in a few fabulous programs like Make A Child Smile, Send Love Today, Chemo Angels and of course Spirit Jump. Each program allows you to send cards or small gifts to their cancer participants. I find great joy in doing this and feel DEEPLY grateful that I am able to with the help of my family, a few loyal supporters and most of all God.


Here's What I've Been Up To:


To Diana & Laura - Both Battling Cancer


To Diana & Laura


To four women who are not battling cancer, but are living with other serious health issues


To Joede, Annette, Esther and Christine


To Celina who's battling cancer


Uplifting spirits the best way I know how to.

    that is so awesome Tabitha! The projects you are working on for kids and cancer patients is so touching to see. Where I work, we have a fund set up called the Zach J Oncology Fund (Kids With Cancer Fund) which is like a little Make A Wish Fund for kids in our area diagnosed with cancer or life threatening illness. I have had to present this "fund" to two families this last year (there's been 4 total) with little ones with cancer. As an employee I smile bravely and am grateful we can do this for families. As a Mom, I find somewhere quiet to go afterwards and cry my eyes out. It breaks my heart, and makes me proud we can help all at once. Good job Tabitha!

    You are amazing!

    I just sent out another spirit jumper package this week. You know what I love about it? I help people, I bring someone a smile, it makes me happy to do so, but the best thing?? My husband doesn't complain about the money I spend on it!! (He's notorious for checking every dollar I spend...what...I have a spending problem! ;)

    A blessing you are. These are random acts of kindness...to those you "know" and don't know...and those blessings you bestow mean the world to others.

    What an awesome woman of God you are! I just love what you are doing for others. If I can ever be in prayer with you for some of these, please let me know. I have a link to my prayer blog on my main blog and I would be glad to add anyone to the list.

    In Him,

    Wonderful list and great pictures. I love creativity! It is such a therapeutic need for me.

    I want to share it on my blog, but my spiritual blog is SO private and personal that the minute I put something up, family and *friends* will know it is me!

    Hello, nice to "meet" you! It is so encouraging to see how you are blessing the days of others with your packages. I am part of two cheer mail programs myself, one for brain cancer patients and another for senior citizens. I pray God blesses you for making a difference in all of these lives.

    I love waking up to the birds too! Now, if we could just get rid of the constant rain!

    I read your profile page and cracked up regarding your interests with your reference to Pinky and the Brain! My hubby & I wish they would show the reruns on TV.

    You have a very big heart with the way you reach out to those who are suffering. I'm sure they see God through you! Thank you for stopping by my blog today!
