Thankful

Sonja tagged me to name 6-8 things I'm thankful for.

1. I'm thankful for sleep. What a wonder that we can recharge that way. I'm especially thankful for getting enough sleep.

2. I'm thankful for music. Without it I would go nuts. I wish I could implant and mp3 player in my head.

3. I'm thankful for my RL friends who will participate with me in the strangest of all rituals - Bunco!

4. I'm thankful for summer because it motivates me to change. Something about the lifegiving sun that makes me want to grow.

5. I'm thankful for babies who grow up to be kids. How awesome to have no more diapers or car seats or bottles or strollers. We are in the wonderful in-between stage where they are no longer little but not yet big. They are agreeable and fun and relatively undemanding. Ask me again in a couple years when I have a teenager.

6. I'm thankful for my husband who will work a 40 hour week with 10 hours of commuting and then spend his weekend working on the aspects of home improvement that I was unable to complete.

7. I am thankful for a God who loves unconditionally and who is ever-present.

8. I am thankful for all of you who bother to read my drivel and even comment on it. You all inspire me and encourage me and even challenge me. You are, in one of my newest blog friends' seemingly favorite words...suh-weet!

EDIT: I guess I was supposed to tag some people - but I'm going to be lame because I'm really tired and I don't know who has already been tagged. So if you want to be tagged, then consider yourself tagged.

Except for Cindy. She's tagged!

  4. Cindy - Both!

    You were the first person who came to mind when I realized I had neglected to tag anyone. Probably because you had already left such a nice comment.
