I am thankful for...

Today I am feeling a little grumpy.  Maybe it is Monday.  Maybe I am still a little tired.  Whatever the reason, I need an attitude adjustment...fast.  I decided to take a few minutes and write what I am thankful for and then this black cloud can disappear and let a little sunshine in!

So here it goes...

I am thankful for:
1.  My husband.  We have our moments and our issues but I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is my love.  He works hard for our family and is an awesome daddy.  I am glad we found each other.

2. My Cora.  She is a fantastic little girl.  She is beautiful and caring.  She tries hard at everything she does.  She is a great helper.  I am blessed to have her.

3. My Sayer.  He is a sweet, caring, sensitive, little man.  He is maturing and learning more every day.  I love to watch him grow!

4. My Renner.  He is...my greatest aggravation, yet my greatest joy.  He makes me smile with the silly things he does and the concrete way he thinks.  I enjoy his humor.

5.  My parents.  I am glad we live so close.  They are always willing to help, even when they struggle too! 

6. My in-laws.  Even though they are farther away, they are always willing to help us and are there to support us any way they can! 

7. My siblings and their spouses.  I love that I come from a large family.  It turns out brothers, sisters, and in-laws can make really good friends!

8. Our jobs.  I am grateful that we are able to work and make ends meet, barely sometimes, in this unstable economy.

9.  My friends.  If it weren't for really good friends in my life, I might go crazy.  I love that I have a friend or two that knows just what I need, when I need it and I don't have to ask. 

10.  My Heavenly Father.  I know that I am a child of God.  I know He loves me.  I know He helps me through the tough times and that He provides the good times.  I am grateful for all that He has and will give me.

I am feeling a little better so I will stop now.  This is, by far, not a complete list of things I am thankful for.  I really could be here all day.  This list is also not in the order of importance.  This is just how I put it down in writing.

That's it for today...peace out!
