So frequently, we can take EVERYTHING for granted. I can be a pretty negative person and have made it my mission the past handful of years to really grasp "things to be thankful for"..
Everything that happens to us has a good side, no matter what. There is a blog out there that makes me laugh and she really seems to grasp that mentality and run with it. Go visit her!
Here, on this lazy Saturday, sitting at my inlaws' new home on the Cape, I'm listing what I'm thankful for:
~the cool breeze blowing in on my right arm
~the company of family, all healthy and happy
~I know where my almost 13 yr old is (--this is an important one to remember when our wee ones are driving us batty)
~knowing that I have sewing projects waiting for me at home
~the smell of a yummy dinner cooking
~the chatter of my almost 5 yr old talking to her grandmother
~the delight of my almost 9 yr old, running up the stairs
I wish you blessings. Many. Just take the time to count them.
