(I'm thankful I won't ever be the Thanksgiving turkey!)
During the holiday season many people take the chance to slow down and count their many blessings. I have MANY things to be thankful for that I don't want to EVER take for granted such as all three of "my boys", my family, my health, my friends, the list could go on...and on...and on! BUT today I wanted to think about the simple things that I am thankful for...the simple pleasure of life.
30 simple things I am thankful for, for my 30 years of life!:
1. the clean feeling after brushing my teeth

This is such a beautiful post. Right now I'm really grateful for meeting new friends. I've made it a goal of mine and really put for the effort. I feel like I'm being blessed by their influence and positivity.
I guess I feel like I have so much to learn and there's so many to learn from. ;)
That was very fun. I love You've Got Mail, too. I just LOVE turning on a favorite chick-flick in the background while I work on something. Fun fun list!!
That was very fun to read. I may have to swipe this idea, if that's okay with you.
Isn't raising three boys fun! I'm loving it.
