things to be glad for...

-a new dryer, I gave away our old one on Craigslist about two weeks ago, I am a fan of the clothesline, but not THAT big of one. Still working on getting the pipes working for the washer, it overflowed today...

-BBQ with the R.S. Presidency and our families, I love those ladies, we're friends, as only you can become in these callings

-beautiful apricot trees, and a friend who shares her fruit!

-fudge sauce that hardens in the fridge that can be eaten by the spoonful when the moment calls for a little emotional eating

-pregnancy pants-they're so much more comfortable than squeezing into what were my favorite jeans

- cooler days and garden tomatoes, and less mowing and watering of the lawn

-Noah coming to the the crowded couch of girls and saying, "room for me Mom?" Of course little man.

-2 good second grade teachers and the chance to get to meet them tonight

-hummingbirds feeding outside our bay window

-fixing dinner that four out five eaters gave a thumbs up, let's say Noah wasn't hungry and give it a perfect rating- chicken curry, mmm.

-Cody, who graciously puts up with my ups and downs whether he feels like it or not.

-big but not too big of a baby that can still do somersaults inside me.

- fabric stores- I'm sure I've saved loads of money having my machine packed away. But today I busted it out for the first time in months and sewed a bar stool cover, felt so good to make something again.

-family in all its forms, my first little nephew Parker

-quiet calm of late nights

I've been a tad grouchy and irritable this past week, just needed to remind myself that life IS indeed good and there are good things happening everyday, even to me :)
