All day today I have been thinking about what I am grateful for. For me it usually takes someone else's plight to help me realize everything that I have to be grateful for. My Uncle Art died a few of days ago, my good friend Karleen's husband's father passed away, one of my fellow bloggers has had a few trials in their family's lives you can go here to read, a little 10 year old girl at my daughter's school has cancer (her blog is here), one of the other vendors in our line of work who is going through a nasty divorce was just told that his 60k a year job is being dissolved and this is just to name a few.
Things I am grateful for:
- An awesome husband who is patient
- Awesome daughter

- A job to support our family
- A roof over our head
- Our health
- The Gospel
And the list goes on and on......
My husband is really good about feeling grateful and sometimes I need a quick sift in the
