thankful for sweet friends who are willing to hang out. thankful for S's reaction to shenandoah caverns and happy to see he likes fireworks. thankful that i've grown a little in mothering. it's hard to explain, but i'm not that lady who is crying every day.. honestly i can't remember when i stopped. that first year was tough, for sure. thankful for a thing called forgiveness.

thankful I can use some talents for another round of the MOPS consignment sale. thankful I don't always win the ebay auctions i bid on. thankful to see people smile when they've been down so long.
thankful for my dad. happy birthday! thankful for my husband and in-laws for being sweet people. thankful for Hilda - you blessed quite a few people in your 83 years. Hope you know that. Enjoy heaven :)
