eight things

8/8/08
Here are eight things I am thankful for! (in no particular order)

1- Parker--he makes me a better wife, mother, and person. He is my best friend and I am so grateful we met--at 7/11. :)
2- My two, beautiful, healthy children. They bring joy (and sometimes frustration) into my life and I am grateful that they are happy and make me happy.
3- My family--parents, sisters and in-laws. I am lucky to have a "normal" family, who supports and loves me unconditionally.
4- Baby wipes- diapers, spit up, crayons on the counter--you name it, I have used baby wipes to clean it up.
5- The gospel. It has made me who I am--and for the most part, I like who I am. It has helped me in my struggles and has given me hope for the future.
6- Books. I am a bookaholic and reading helps me unwind and relax.
7- TV. Yes, I do have my guilty pleasures.
8- Electricity- and all that comes with that--internet, air conditioning, phone, etc. I am a modern girl and am proud of it. (thank you Mr. Edison!)
