Day 20 and 21

I am not sure what happened to yesterday's list... I swore I wrote one... but now I cannot find it.  Maybe it is because we are now doing TWO lists.  My blog list and the "Gifts We Already Have" list that the boys started.  Our goal is to fill up this huge sheet of paper with blessings before Christmas.  The boys are not quite convinced that we can do it.  I am pretty sure I am going to need to hang up another sheet because the first one will be filled by Thanksgiving Day.

Whatever the case, I am putting yesterday and today's list all on one post.

I am thankful for...
*  the splash park and the hours of fun and refreshment it has brought us.
*  friends that pop in for a cup of coffee.
*  huge, white, puffy clouds in a bright blue sky.
*  our pool.
*  the staff at the pool.
*  how crazy excited Hadley was to get into the pool (That girl REALLY wants to swim!).
*  answered prayers at just the right time.
*  wonderful text messages in the early morning that start your day off right.
*  my husband's fair and sensible compromise that saved us from an argument.
*  people who volunteer.
*  people who work hard to put donation dollars to good use.
*  the strange wonder that will be running in shorts and a tee shirt in a dark neighborhood filled with bright shiny Christmas lights.
*  the Bible.
*  the muscle roller that worked out some crazy tension in my calves and IT band.
*  the old Flip videos of the kids that Cutter and I watched.  Why is it that time flies so fast??  Man I miss my babies and they are still my babies!
*  these pretty rose like flowers on a tree I had the privilege of running by tonight.
*  people who ask for help.
*  people who love to help.
*  our reliable USPS.
*  the National Anthem

So much good good stuff.
