Thankful

Well, I say it every time.... where does the time go??? It just amazes me how fast time really does fly by the older you get! Maybe it's called having a full time job, being a momma, and a wife! I absolutely love all of my roles and can't imagine it any other way! At 11:30 at night I should be sleeping but thanks to my wonderful friends' awesome sweet tea I may be up awhile...so
20 things I'm thankful for:
1. God's grace, forever thankful, that our God saves!
2. My husband who is also my best friend to share this life with!
3. Three amazing children that God has given to Jeff and I to raise to know and serve
him!
4. A job that I love! Love my 24 "other kiddos"!!! My first graders that is! It's so awesome to have a job so rewarding!
5. A warm, safe place we call home! It's definitely hard to keep it as clean as I would like but I've gotten better at accepting that "it's lived in"!
6. Thankful everyday that we have food to nourish our body!
7. A wonderful church that helps me grow spiritually every weekend!
8. That being said, thankful for sat. night service for when our Sunday mornings are spent at the soccer field.
9. So thankful for our health!
10. Our family and great friends to make so many memories with!
11. Boating at the lake and camping! Again so many fantastic memories are made every summer!
12. Laughter and giggles of a two year old, oh how I love, my sweet Chloe's giggle! (OK, yes she is a little stinker sometimes but her cuteness makes up for it all)
13. The silly things Preston says! He loves to make me smile!
14. Austin, our classic first born. Organized, worrier, takes care of everyone, wants everyone to be happy! So proud of each of my children!
15. Coffee, my only addiction! Gotta have it to get movin! Oh, and sweet tea!!
16. Music and dancing with my kids at the end of the day!
17. Trampolines, also great stress re-leaser with kids! Yes, I still love to jump, too!
18. Modern medicine, something we often take for granted! Yet, we experienced first hand this summer that it saved our Austin from becoming even more sick!
19. Vacations
20. Summer vacation, love all the time with my kids in the summer!
