Let's face it, some days are just better than others. On occasion I find myself with a wee bit of an attitude that is usually guilted into submission by the first (well, with little ones let's be honest... so the second) hour of church. So I couldn't wait to get home and make a list of some random items I am thankful for.
I am grateful for:
1. Freezer meals (I get to thank myself and fun friends for these that we make together one night a month) these allow for me to be lazy 8 days in the month and still put a home cooked meal on the table!
2. My children (not random I know) but honestly sometimes they are better examples to me than I am to them. I am pretty sure Heavenly Father gave me children that were so smart and so sweet that even I couldn't mess them up.
3. Second chances of any kind (or third or fourth or...). I am far from perfect in any area, so those that have forgiven me for my antics time and time again, thanks. Well, here we go again.
4. For other people who actually blog about how imperfect their life is rather than how perfect it is. It makes me who locks her keys in her car once a month (often with stranded children inside), who shuts down Target and Walmart, and even forgot early out last Wednesday, feel so much better.
5. Lego Scriptures (thanks Jamie!) They make morning scripture study fun for the kids. My kids love them and love to look at the pictures. www.brickofmormon.com
The list indeed could go on, but I just needed to take a moment to list a few things. It always makes me feel so much better and obviously a bit more grateful.
