Monday Mania - Happy Thanksgiving!

I've renamed "Memory Verse-Music Mondays" with a much easier and funner name - Monday Mania... Just thought I'd let y'all know. :)

Anyways... Happy Thanksgiving, Canadian friends!

Family, friends, laughter, fun, music, sports, living out faith, hope, love & compassion and most importantly Jesus - thankful for all that and much more this weekend! ♥

And so, this week's song is brought to you from Scotty McCreery's brand-new album, "Clear as Day."

It's called "Dirty Dishes". It's an awesome reminder to thank God for all your blessings: Even for things that typically aren't on your list of "Things to be Thankful For".

Enjoy!




Momma Hollers, Suppertime 
And Don't Make Me Tell You Twice 
Wash Your Hands And Wipe Your Face 
The Table's No Place For Your Toys 
And Try To Use Your Inside Voice 
Don't Dig In "Til We Say, Grace 
So We Put Down Our Forks And Bowed Our Heads 
Then She Prayed The Strangest Prayer Ever Said 

I Wanna Thank You, Lord 
For Noisy Children And Slammin' Doors 
And Clothes Scattered All Over The Floor 
A Husband Workin' All The Time 
Draggin' In Dead-Tired At Night 
A Never Ending, Messy Kitchen 
And Dirty Dishes 
We All Got Real Still And Quiet 

And Daddy Asked, "Hon, Are You All Right?" 
She Said, "There Ain't Nothin' Wrong 
Noisy Kids Are Happy Kids 
And Slammin' Doors Just Means We Live 
In A Warm And Loving Home 
Your Long Hours And Those Dishes In The Sink 
Means A Job And Enough To Eat 


So, I'm Gonna Thank You, Lord
For Noisy Children And Slammin' Doors 
And Clothes Scattered All Over The Floor 
A Husband Workin' All The Time 
Draggin' In Dead-Tired At Night 
A Never Ending, Messy Kitchen 

For My Little Busy Bees 
Beggin' Momma, Momma Can We Please 
Always Wantin', Needing, Callin' Me 
Loads Of Laundry Pilin' Up 
Crayons Crushed Into The Rug 
And Those Little Sticky Kisses 
And Dirty Dishes 
And Dirty Dishes


But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:57

  3. I am thankful for CI and a bunch of other things that are really hard to think of when you lost everything on your laptop :(
