on friday, i was thankful for a light day full of fun and laughter. lots of laughter. as hard as the year has been, i truly love my job, my kiddos, and my coworkers ... and especially the little perks like wearing pjs, sharing meals, playing with paint, & snuggling. i was thankful for bugles and pumpkin cookies, for get togethers after work, playing games around the fire after a long week, and getting to sleep with a dog.
on saturday, i was thankful for a gorgeous morning walk, coffee in my favorite mug, cuddling on the couch and watching movies while editing pics, panera iced green tea, unexpected free time for a costco run, and a fabulous dinner catching up with a sweet friend.
sunday i was thankful for getting to run in shorts and a tshirt and even for getting caught in a downpour, my incredible church family, being part of a make-a-wish celebration for one of my sweet kiddos at work, and digging deep with our amazing lifegroup family.
monday, i was thankful for being real about the hard stuff, the chance to relax while feeling crummy, and then a reprieve to dive in and clean like crazy. yes, i'm thankful for getting to clean - that i enjoy it and have that attention for detail. i am also thankful for my love for and fascination with animals - from house pets to catching mice to rescuing giant salamanders.
today was a sad day. but still we are called to give thanks in ALL things. with love comes pain - i am learning to embrace that. i am thankful for a doctor who cares, for running into friends, for hallmark cards, for holiday shopping, for my tito's family, and that my sweet friend lisa lives in nashville again!
it's been a great week so far. i'm excited to really dive into thanksgiving mode tomorrow, and hope that everyone can find their own little joys to celebrate, as well.
