A Stolen Idea of Thanks

A couple of my friends have previously posted "Thankful 'Day of the Week'" updates to share what they are thankful for. I love reading these posts because it can be encouraging and uplifting to hear about blessings and it reminds me to think about the "small things"

So on this Friday, I am thankful for:

1. My life - it's simple and boring to some, but I thrive on simple and consistent
2. My husband - he's a wonderful man and I am truly blessed to have snagged him up.
3. My dogs - I love having a reason (beyond health) to get up and walk in the mornings
   
4. My morning walks - being outside with the crickets chirping and the bird saying "Good Morning", it's very peaceful.
5. My friends - I am blessed with a number and variety of amazing friends. Each and every one of you are a true blessing in my life.
6. My sister - Not only is she close in distance, but we have a beautiful friendship.
   
7. Baking - I don't do it nearly enough, but creating things in the kitchen is a pleasure and joy
8. "America's Got Talent" - this silly reality show really amuses me. It's so funny to see what people come up with to be "unique"
9. The birdfeeder outside my window
10. Cherry Dr Pepper - a superficial way to end, but I look forward to this drink everyday at lunch.
