Ten more things I'm grateful for --
1. The taste of fall wrapped up in an apple.
2. A community of believers on Griffin Rd. that I call family.
3. That my kids are healthy enough to throw fits -- even if I wish they wouldn't!
4. A cozy living room with a wood-burning stove. Makes me think I'm actually in the mtns.
5. Pink countertops. Would I change them in a heartbeat, given the opportunity? Absolutely. BUT millions of women today will wonder how they are going to feed their children -- and I have absolutely no worries about that. So, if I have to feed my kids off of pink countertops -- I'm gonna choose to be thankful for them!
6. My new HD Camcorder to record a lot of years of life still ahead for my kids.
7. My laptop -- it makes life so much easier!!!
8. The ministry God has given me to work with children.
9. A dog that won't stop barking at the squirrel up in the tree. (OK, I'm choosing to be grateful right now!)
10. Dark chocolate M&Ms.
I have to question the pink countertop and the dark M&Ms!! But I too am grateful for my puke green countertops in my 100 year old house.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could give you a real good reason why you have pink countertops, is it too late to apologize? The small color sample certainly did not give an indication of the overwhelming final result. You don't deserve it I know.
ReplyDeleteYou're funny, Tammy! I don't blame you -- they're keeping me grounded, not to mention humble.
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful and lovingly funny list of thankful things.
ReplyDeleteSome days it is only with humour I can be thankful for things.
