I was cleaning my very messy kitchen today (I mean no silverware left, kind of dirty), when I started thinking of all the things I am grateful for, so I thought I would share (since it is that time of year and all).
I'M THANKFUL FOR:
1. My practically perfect in every way, husband. What would I do without my Dave? I really don't know? I am the luckiest girl to have such a wonderful father to my children and the greatest eternal companion. What more can I ask for? Why am I crying?
2. My practically perfect in every way, children. Cait is pure as pure can be, Dawson is the funniest, handsomest boy around, and Miss Belle's search for adventure keeps me on my toes. I love them more than anything in the world. Here come the tears.
3. My practically stupid in every way, dog. My dream when I finally had a home of my own, was to get a dog. Little did I know she would be as stupid as Labbie. Okay she's not that bad, the first few years were that bad, but now I think the drugs have finally worn off and she is just fine and I think she might be just a little bit loyal? I like having a dog around when everyone else is gone, she keeps me company and eats Miss Belles leftovers.
4. David has a week off of school.! No more to be said
5. My newly cleaned kitchen. I have been canning like crazy and I am very grateful that I am finally down to only one set of dishes left to go into the dish washer.
6. Quiet moments, kind of like right now. The only sound in my house is the radio (turned down low) and the dishwasher. I love moments like this.
7. Life Long Friends. Not to leave anyone out, but there are three friends that I hope to have until I die. Holly, Jeanine and Stephanie. I really don't know if you could find better friends in this world. Look I'm crying again. Girlfriends I love you. I love my new friends too and I am grateful to have them living so close by that I can have a good friend fix whenever I need it.
8. Hair Bows. Okay I know that's weird, but I've never really had a hobby and I am grateful that I enjoy making hair bows so much.
9. For empty laundry baskets. What??? What empty laundry baskets? A girl can dream, right?
10. And at the moment, last but not least, blogging. I have always loved keeping a journal, but since my kids were born it happens less and less. So with blogging I can keep a journal and keep up with good friends. Thanks blogger.

She does not look like me, no I don't use the F bomb and I don't listen to rap. I listen to frank sinatra but that is still thugish because he was totally a member of the mafia. And I am not a dork for doing belly dancing and fencing, I consider myself to be well rounded. Cute kids.
You are so sweet. I truly am grateful for the fact that despite a few moves and families and distances we have all managed to stay close. That is such a blessing.
I like reaading 'grateful lists' - good motivation! And don't worry - blogging IS the new scrapbooking - without those dumb glue-dots.
