I am grateful...

For partly cloudy mornings.

For preschool and coffee shops.

For God's nourishing, comforting, challenging, loving Words.

For a working vehicle.

For a girl who loves her pacifiers.

For an easy hair routine.

For comfortable shorts.

For a boy who makes me laugh. And makes me proud.

For clean sheets.

For living in the "country."

For music.

For P.

For friends who take such good care of me and my kids.

For answered prayers.

For the ability to teach preschoolers in Bible class.

For really good curriculum in the preschooler's Bible class.

For funny bloggers.

For America, and for my brother, the Soldier.

For free iTunes downloads at Starbucks.

For the discovery of yoga.

For naps on the couch.

For backyard playtime.

For grandmothers.

For MOPS and Museum School and Bible classes.

For the countless souls who've cared for my kids during this busy week.

For busy-ness.

For rest.

For partly cloudy mornings that turn into full-blown thunderstorms.

I am grateful.
