Thankful

I have been somewhat on the emotional side the last couple of days. Not too bad though, and not because I've been sad. You know when you find yourself thinking deeper...longer, about what matters most to you? When you really slow down...and take more time to notice what you have?

Some of what I am thankful for ~

I'm thankful to God...for granting me life and a happy contentment that I share with my family...and for forgiving my life long imperfections. For being patient with me because I have so much to learn.

I'm thankful for Damon...who despite how flawed I may be and always will be, I know he still loves me just the same. I know with him, I don't have to try to be more than I am...just me. There are two words that have always described him...he is FUN-LOVING. With our children and with me. I love him for that.

I am thankful to my kids for teaching me how to be more patient, and helping me embrace my kid at heart. For loving me indefinitely and for letting me love them.

I am thankful for people who look past differences we all have and who love unconditionally.

I am thankful to have a cozy home to hang my hat, the food we need, a flushing toilet, diapers, baby wipes, hot showers, my digital camera, my dishwasher, and feminine toiletries(seriously, think about that).

I love all of you! Annie
