Day 87 - March 31

I am grateful for Spring!  It is so beautiful!  I love the blossoms on the trees.  I love how comfortable it is to be outside and work in the garden.  I love to hear the children playing outside.  I love to play on the wiggle cars and jut enjoy the beautiful world the Lord has given us!

Day 86 - March 30

I am grateful for health and safety right now.  Missy's friend was in a car accident (one week after she got her license) where she hit a motorcyclist right outside the dance studio.  So scary!  I know bad things happen, and they have happened, but I am grateful for today when all my dearest loved ones are tucked safely in their beds.

Day 85 - March 29

I am grateful for the chance I have to serve.  I got to choreograph a dance for the elementary school choir students to do to a rock medley.  My children are not in choir!  But, I said yes and had a blast working with them and having another chance to serve.

Day 84 - March 28

I am grateful for pictures and videos.  I love looking at my kids' pictures and seeing all the fun times we have had.  I love those photos help us all remember those special moments - sometimes the special day to day, seemingly unimportant things.  I love memories!

Day 83 - March 27

I am grateful for the internet.  Wow has it made so many things in life so much easier!  I love that I can look stuff up, stay connected with loved ones, and share my journal/scrapbook with family and friends that don't live close!

Day 82 - March 26

I am grateful for children who learn and live the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Missy taught our FHE lesson and it was wonderful!  I love that she really thinks about things and shares that with the rest of us.

Day 81 - March 25

I am grateful for family time.  Today we got to be home, playing games, watching movies, eating dinner.  It was wonderful!  Alli watched "Beauty and the Beast" for the first time.  So fun to watch it through her eyes!

Day 80 - March 24

I am grateful for Conferences and living prophets.  I was able to attend the general Young Women's Broadcast with my daughters.  It never fails to lift me up when I attend these meetings.  I want to do better and I feel better after going.  How grateful I am we have a prophet and other leaders sent to lift, inspire and teach!

Day 79 - March 23

I am grateful for a healthy body. Spent the afternoon riding wiggle cars and running around with the kids. I love that!

Day 78 - March 22

I am grateful for bathtubs!  I have discovered that I REALLY love to soak in the tub after a long day of teaching dance.  It has seemed to help my old tired body a lot!

Day 77 - March 21

I am grateful for the music program at my kids school.  It is truly amazing (especially the band program).  I love to see the kids improve on those talents and have a good time doing it.

Days 62-76 - March 20th

Wow! I have missed most of this month.  I thought about going back, but I just know that is the reason it took me this long to write something.  I broke my ipad and that really hindered my writing posts, since I would actually have to get back up and walk into the computer room at night to post.  But, I have had it back for awhile now and I still haven;t posted!

Anyway, I am grateful for that ipad!  I love it and what I can do with it and on it.  Mostly this month, I think I have been grateful for Corry.  He does so much for us and is super stressed out with what he is not accomplishing at work, church and home.  I wish he was around more, but I so appreciate all that he IS doing, because it is a lot.  How did I get so luck to have him?  I think the Lord knew I needed someone really good for me otherwise I would fall and fall hard.

Thank you thank you for Corry!

Day 61 - March 1

I am grateful to be a mom. Hardest thing I have ever done, but also the best. The things I have learned and the way I have grown, is irreplaceable. I am so glad I get to be a mom.

Day 60 - February 29th

I am grateful for snow! We haven't had much this year. It really is beautiful and it brings me my beloved water for the year!

Day 59 - February 28th

I am grateful for indoor plumbing! I love showers, baths, toilets, water to wash my hands, do dishes and get drinks. I truly love water and am so grateful for it!

Day 58 - February 27th

I am grateful for family. My cousin and her family were able to come over for a bit tonight. I love being with family and friends! How enriched is my life because of the people I love being around me!

Day 57 - February 26th

Today I am grateful for laughter. I think I keep needing to learn the lesson to laugh through hard things instead of cry. We heard a speaker that laughed through his hard times and it was really easy to laugh with him. I want to be like that. There are things I can laugh about now, but I want to learn to laugh more in the moment.

Day 56 - February 25th

Today I am grateful for forgiveness! I messed up Scotty's last basketball game again!that is two years in a row I got the wrong time and we totally missed it. Thankfully this year his dad was with him, and talked to him, so hopefully I won't be ceiling hate mail after this one. But boy did I feel bad, again! I am so grateful for forgiveness!

Day 55 - February 24th

I got way behind! Today I am grateful for good books. I have been really into reading this year. I think I have read around 15 books already. More than I read all last year I think. I love to loose myself in a good book!
