thankful for.

Granny has been in the hospital. She's so old and so weak. It's a terrible thing watching someone you love suffer. I am thankful that I am living here now and not far away where I felt so very helpless.
Here I can comfort. Here I can help. Here I can offer strength.

I am thankful for lovely fall weather.
Lots of photo opportunities; thus lots of extra money for Christmas.
I am thankful for the Word.
I am thankful for coffee. Especially cappuccino from McDonalds.
Which brings me to : I am thankful for McDonald's. The one with the play place where my kids are trapped inside of 4 walls yet want to play rather than be near me.
I am thankful for grace--which I feel like I need after yelling at the kids or behaving irrationally.
I am thankful for TheraFlu.
I am thankful for healing. Jake had some tests ran last week that came back abnormal. When we prayed over him and got the results, all was fine.
Because our God reigns.
I am thankful for Audrine. Mabel Audrine.
My breath of fresh air.
I am thankful for Harper's sly grin that gets me through the day.
For Rache.
I am thankful for confidence.
Baby leggings.
The View.
Hope.
A new bra.
I am thankful for friends; old and new. Near and far.
The ability to give. and give. and give some more.
I am thankful for Jesus.
Restoration.
Harmony.
Noise.
Quiet.
Baths.
My new sugarland CD.
nap time.
And pizza.
Thank God for Pizza.

What about you? What are you thankful for today...in this very moment?
Big or small...
