Thankful

I have a really long list that would apply, but tonight am especially thankful that Gabe has been accepted into the Walker-Scottish Rite Speech Clinic.
He will receive services twice each week, for an hour each time.
After just one session, I kid you not, I already see an improvement.

And here, are some other things I'm thankful for...

• a car that I can get in & start -- without worrying if it really will start
• healthy kids
• friends, good ones...and my kids having good friends
• a job that has allowed me to be a full time momma
• a job that has allowed me to make an impact on the Kingdom
• a husband who is an incredible father
• a safe environment for my allergy girl, who we once thought would never be in large group settings
• knowing that my husband's eyes are always on God
• being raised to 'fight' for the things I think are important (& fight for my kids)
• a church that allows us to be part of a heterogeneous 'community'
• food on the table & full bellies
• heat & a/c
• hand-me-down clothes & toys
• new & old friends & the fact that mid-thirties, I'm still making new friends
• that my family now worships alongside us
• a Pastor that realizes the importance of relevance
• a Pastor's wife who is full of integrity...that I admire & respect
• having a sister who is my best friend
• having extended family who support us
• anti-bacterial gel
• a potty seat in our car
• medicine & prescriptions
• fruits & veggies
• a working computer
• a dvd-player in our mini-van
• a new filling in my cavity
• the ability to laugh, no matter what's going on
• a really smart husband, who has thoughts of his own
• smart kids, who also happen to be really cute

And that, my friends, is just the tip of the iceberg.
