Things I Should Feel More Grateful Than Guilty About
http://karensugarpants.com/ 2008/ 04/ 12/ things-i-should-feel-more-grateful-than-gu...
Being able to run, lift weights, walk, bike and play softball; Having healthy kids; Having a husband who is my teammate, my soulmate, and keeps me wrapped in a loving relationship that I know is forever; Having a home - a warm, cozy home (it’s on the market, but it’s still our home); Being able to afford healthy food, a gym membership, a trainer, extracurricular activities for our family; Working at jobs that I love, jobs that allow me the opportunity to stay home with my kids; That my husband goes out to work every day and provides for our family - and that he comes home only to take care of things while I go to the gym most nights; That my boys are turning out to be people I am proud of - people of substance - people who go to bat for others and are sweet and kind.

It's a GRATEFUL kind of day
http://tuttlefamilyadventures.blogspot.com/2008/04/its-grate...Karen had this awesome post on her blog and it made me think. It is so easy for us to whine and complain about all the negative things that are happening in our lives that we completely miss out on all the things that we should be grateful for. So today I'm taking some time to STOP and enjoy things that mean so much... Some things I'm grateful for today... 1) Dylan came up to me and asked, "Mommy can I have a hug," then he said "No, a kiss is even better." 2) My husband has a stable job that he enjoys and that he takes the time from it to call just to see how my day is going. 3) There is a beautiful spring breeze blowing in the window and I have the time to just watch the curtains dance. 4) My milk was nice and cold when I shared a bowl of cereal with Zoe. 5) That I am healthy and strong enough to clean my house and take out 4 bags of trash! 6) I get to go out with a wonderful group of ladies tonight who I am proud to have as my best friends. True friendships are very rare and I am so blessed to have at least four of them. 7) When I stepped on the scale this morning it was 2 pounds less than last week! 8) Zoe just came to sit beside me and said, "Hi Mom!" 9) Two healthy kids who have played so well together today. 10) I have electricity and a laptop so I can blog and twitter my day away What blessings are you grateful for today?
