Thankful Thursdays

So I got this great new idea from my friend Jarah's blog and I thought I would carry it on. I have wanted to start this for quite some time but have never had the time on a Thursday. I know it's only Monday night but I thought it would be better than never. I feel so grateful that I need to write some of the things down. So, here goes...

my husband

capstone being over (after tomorrow)

Elizabeth Rhondeau's mission experience that she so eloquently described

the paper chain on my floor that is a nightly reminder that I'm about to graduate

how good my niece makes me feel when i get to her house and she is waiting for me on the bottom step

the Gospel

my job

sleepovers at the in laws so i can sleep in an extra hour

the kids at PCMC

my mom saying 'this is your mother' when she leaves me voice messages

phone calls from my dad

how amidst all this chaos my house is actually coming together

the bachelor to keep me company while Jonny is out workin late

bunco night

good chats with old friends

how after a late night of work Jon wakes me up at 3 in the morning to kiss and hug me goodnight just because i asked him to

rice bags

my blanket

cute headbands to jazz up my hairstyle when i haven't showered

Jarah's blog

Hobby Lobby

how the laundry magically is done by the time i get home

Books, Books, and more Books (which I will again be aquainted with in a very short amount of time)

amazing support from a loving family

And those are just a few. I could go on and on but I should probably get some rest before my last and final shift of capstone. Feel free to follow along and continue on this tradition of what they call project: cultivate thankfulness. It really does make you feel better even during the worst of days.
