505, you ask? yes!! jimmie and i met for lunch today and on the way he got a call from work... he won the $500 shopping spree contest they've been running the last 3 weeks. so on monday he gets to go with several other winners to wal-mart and they have 30 minutes to spend $500 each! that shouldn't be hard to do, right??? wrong! :) we instantly went into plan-mode... do we do the practical thing and buy new socks, undies, tees, diapers, groceries, etc? or do we splurge and get bigger bikes and helmets for the kiddos since they outgrew theirs this year? or do we get that new tv we've been wanting since ours shows everyones faces in the color orange? or do we do something meaningful like new coats and sweaters for Victory Mission. OR!!! OH WAIT!!! just thougtht of this one ~ we could buy a ton on stuff for the new 'one heart' ministry at church!! oh, that would be sooo much fun! hmmm... the possibilities are endless ~ and i love the anticipation of the weekend while we decide.
oh, and the other 5 blessings??? that's easy!! those are named abagail, jay, katie, emma, and jimmie... the greatest blessings of my day by far!
