Grateful

I just wanted to let you know that, despite my downs, I do have ups. I don't like to read depressing blogs like mine lately. And so I've decided to share w/you what I am grateful for.

1. chocolate
2. movies
3. when Samuel says, "Bill the Bodder" (instead of "Bob the Builder")
4. Jocelyn's smile
5. Tyler saying "thank you"
6. My HUGE extended family and the fact that I know all (85+) of my first cousins first names and their spouses. I LOVE my family. They are a huge support to me.
7. for my body. yes, at times, I look in the mirror and dream of having a much leaner and sexier one. But I am grateful that it works! And that I can SEE it!
8. prescription strength deodorant
9. the fact that I just finished folding 2 weeks worth of laundry
10. my job
11. my immediate family
12. My ever supporting friends
13. when my kids go to bed
14. prayer



things that I love about myself:
1. I am frugal
2. I like to serve
3.I know how to cook good food (oh, look at all of those double "o"'s)
4. I can write
5. I inspire
6. my eyes
7. my hair, my "one beauty" (name that movie !)
8. I am a wife
9. I am a sister
10. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints
11. I imagine
12. I dream
13. I am a daughter of God
14. I am a mother


Now it's your turn! What are you grateful for and what do you love about yourself? I want to read it on your blogs! :)

  1. One true beauty is from LITTLE WOMEN. I am glad that tings are getting a little easier. We all have those weeks when you just want to throw in the towel. thanks for the cookies they were so good. Let me know what I can do to help. You can always come down and watch American Idol. I'm feeling lots better today.

  3. Beautiful gratitude list Hannah! I feel for young mothers and rough days. I had my share with Todd, our handicapped son. It's amazing how life's experiences mold and form us into something better though.

    Happy Day! Aunt Charlene
