I'm Thankful...

"I know that one thing I am thankful for, is sitting right in front of me."

yah...we'll pretend like that's from some famous chick flick or something. i'm cool with that.

anyway...

have you ever noticed that people are always saying "thank you" for the big things...but the little things simply pass them by? in church last sunday we were playing scattergories with things we are thankful for and rarely did i have the same ones as the other girls {given, i wrote things like fuzzy sweaters, the ability to breath air and longhand letters...} but still. where's the gratitude for the small lovely things of life?

so here goes. my tribute to the big and the little.

~i'm thankful~

for key changes in the music
beautiful, calm brown eyes
holding a sleeping baby
the smile of a friend
beautiful moments
happiness
natural sunlight
daydreams
black and white photographs
red gloves and vibrant peacoats
denim jeans with holes in the knees
my mom.
living in elk ridge
green grass in spring and summer
fall leaves and white snow
christmas music
childhood memories
sunrise and sunsets...
long walks in the evenings
christmas lights everywhere
human touch {like holding hands and hugs}
peach colored roses
home chopped wood and stoked fires

also...

that boy who seems to have taken my world by storm

after all that's what the best kinds of friends tend to do right?

~HAPPY THANKSGIVING~
