thankful...

With the theme of thankfulness in the air... though the big day was yesterday, I would still like to list out some things I am thankful for.
Just a small list of things that bring JOY and THANKFULNESS to my heart...
My Ezzy's deep brown beautiful eyes
The laugh of Gabby that brings a huge smile to my face
Sweet friendships with friends all over the world
Watching Ellie twirl and dance
The creativity of God in how individual my children are
Holding sweet Owen in my arms
Seeing my husband reach down and scoop up his kiddos into his arms
The color blue
For my dishwasher :)
Having my parents live close to us
Country Time Lemonade
Kisses from my kiddos given all on their own
A husband that is also my BEST friend, who often watches ALL kiddos so I can have time alone....ahhh, such a blessing :)
A GOD that will never leave me, loves me endlessly, and lavishly gives His perfect GRACE towards me...His child

This blog just makes me smile. I think I could echo this one almost perfectly (the exception being the Lemonade...I'm more of a peppermint tea fan, the color yellow in leu of blue, and the boys don't really dance or twirl (unless that word means 'wrestling' in boy talk) :o), but I do LOVE those volunary 'i love you's, hugs, & kisses!). I noticed you forgot to mention chocolate ;) That would definetly be on my list, but YOU sweet friend would be one of the first in line for those nearest and dearest to my heart!
Love Ya!

Hey Baby,
I'm thankful for the way you manage to be teacher, Mother, wife, and friend so perfectly every day. I'm thankful for the times when we cross paths in the hall way and you scratch my back right where it itches. I'm thankful for the instant messages that pop up on my computer at lunch time. And I'm thankful for someone to call when I've just been chewed out by another parent. Thank you for being my baby..uh,baby- Love e
