Giving Thanks

Today, I am thankful...


...for the driver who stopped to let me pass through in a crammed parking lot,

...for the gentleman who took my cart after I finished loading groceries into my car,

...for the big fluffy clouds that smoothly moved across the blue sky, bathing in the bright sun,

...for the woman needing me to back out of the bathroom hall to allow her to maneuver her cart with her 1yr old in it, reminding me that I'm not alone in awkward dances performed in public while caring for little ones and attempting to perform normal duties,

...for the warm smile of the grandma near the flowers in the hardware store, how I miss the love and company of my late grandparents,

...for the venus fly trap my oldest son was excited to find, and brave enough to ask the saleswoman for,

...for the little smiles and giggles my youngest son gave on a mostly cranky day,

...for the unconditional love and acceptance given to us by Emmas, my parents dog,

...for the must have books found at the local christian book store, pulling me back down to earth,

...for the creative ideas and clarity gained  through out the day,

...for my good friend Ashley who is joining me on a Love Dare adventure,

...for my brother and his family living on the same block as me,

...for my internet connection and computer, allowing me to share my gratitude.


I'd love to hear what you are thankful for today.  Leave a comment below and share the love :)
