- I am grateful that I was raised in a family where I was loved unconditionally and I was so important to my parents; my dad always providing stability, and my mom being super-mom as she coached soccer, led Girl Scouts, and made our home somewhere everyone felt welcome. It wasn’t perfect…or even close to perfect, but I think where there is love, most things can be overcome.
- I am grateful to have met so many wonderful people through blogging, but Anne especially. She is one of the most thoughtful people I know and I feel so luck to have her as a friend and running partner! (Anne…I love, love, love the camera!!!)
- I am grateful for the gratitude challenge. It’s what got me out of bed yesterday…when I started to whine, in my head, about how much I didn’t want to get up (not that it’s really an option), suddenly all of these “grateful” thoughts started popping into my head. It was totally irritating, yet effected the paradigm shift I needed. Yes, I needed a freaking paradigm shift to get out of bed yesterday.
Saying thank you is more than good manners. It is good spirituality.

I seriously love that picture of us. We’re so hot, even with ridiculous glasses on. I’m so glad you like the camera. I just hope you’re not afraid of it like I am. I can’t wait to see what you produce with it.You’re the best!!!
No offense but the grateful stuff is kind of boring. But I’m grateful that you’re grateful – don’t get me wrong.What did you cross off “the list” for you birthday? We are dying to know!
LOVE the glasses on you girls! Fabulous. And stop saying you’re chubby. You don’t even have a double chin.
