Thankful Thursday

Funny thing... last night I woke up thinking... oh no, I missed Thursday again! Then I realized that it WAS Thursday morning, not night. Hahaha.


Wow... so much to be thankful for!

I'm thankful for my daughter, and the joy she brings me each time I see her. She's learning new things. Her eyes look so intelligent to me, and it makes me smile each time she smiles. Oh, she's almost rolling onto her tummy now! She was soooo close yesturday!

I'm thankful for our video camera we got for Christmas in 2007. I have it out so I can capture those moments for my husband to see later on. He's working so much that he misses out on a lot of what our daughter is doing.

I'm thankful that I don't need a job outside the home... I can stay home with my baby and raise her and watch her grow instead of having her at daycare for someone else to raise. Not that daycare is bad... I just prefer having her to myself... I'm selfish that way (smile).

I'm thankful for Flying. My sink is shiny, my meals are finally being planned (why did it take so long for me to do that... all I needed to do is write it down that I need to do it every monday, and now I do it... so silly), I'm getting rid of stuff I no longer want or need (why do we hold onto these things? I never look at them, just hide them on myself... why?), and so I feel better about my house... and myself.

I'm thankful for crackers. Yes... crackers. When I'm hungry and baby girl needs me, crackers are easy to grab and munch... so are carrots, celery, cheese... I could go on.

Anyway, baby girl needs me yet again... so I'll cut this short. I'm thankful for her vocal capabilities... no monitor is needed in this two story house!!! (smile)

I love how attentive you have been to the ordinary things we often take for granted. ALL these are blessings, aren't they?

I'm so glad you mentioned 'FLYing'! I've never heard of it before, so I checked it out. I think it will be a BIG help for me. Thanks!

One of the first things I am going to do when we move into our new house is shine my sink! I am grateful that I do not have to work outside of the home, too.
