Gardner and Stephanie Gee

Stephanie Gee is a rare angel on earth.

She is always so very thoughtful.

Last night, knowing that we are getting ready to leave today, she and her family came over and brought tacos and burritos from Taco Time.

It was just so incredibly thoughtful of her, given that she is such a busy mother of four.

it has been a blessing for us to have them close by.

And, I am grateful.

A Comfortable Bed

I stayed in three different homes last week.

Three different beds.

Every single one was so very  comfortable.

Better than MINE.

But, I'm grateful to have a bed and one that is tolerably comfortable.

I saw some homeless people today, and I realize that having a bed is, to some, a great luxury.

And, I'm so very grateful for mine.

My Heritage

I have a rich, marvelous heritage.

It is filled with good, hard-working, honorable people.

Not everyone can claim a noble heritage, so I'm grateful for mine.

My Home

I just love our home.

It is just right for me.

Every time I come home from the store, a trip, anywhere, I walk in and feel so very grateful.

Safe Trip to Boise

My brother, Kaey, and I drove to Boise to be with Gavin after his terrible accident.

It was a good trip, and I'm thankful for our safety.

I'm thankful I could be with Gavin and Libby; they are so inspiring.

Sharing the trip with Kaey was a great blessing as I would not have wanted to go alone.

I am so grateful.

My Life As It Is NOW!

I don't like change.

I like things to be the way they are.

For example, the bank just changed its online interface, and it's taking me awhile to get used to it.

I liked it the way it was....what was wrong with it anyway?

And, right now, things are good.

Family is fine.

Health is good.

Money situation is good.

Dentist said said my teeth are good.

I feel healthy, just tired, but no actual, REAL complaints.

And, I am so very grateful.

Birds Singing in the Morning

What a cheery way to start the day...

To hear birds singing right outside my window.

And, I am grateful!

Mondays!

Unlike working people,

I adore Mondays.

I like to get up and get things done.

So, I'm grateful for Mondays.

From Eli! Electricity!

Eli is grateful for electricity....

And, so am I!

When I think of all the things that we do with electricity, I am so grateful.

And, now there are even electric CARS!

Jeremy has one.  IT's so amazing.

But, I am forever grateful to live in a time with electricity.

From Miles - ME!

Miles said, that I should be thankful for him!

And, I am.

This is Miles in Sept 08, when he was just two years old.  He just gets cuter, more fun, and he's also very artistic.

I'm grateful that we get to spend time with him.

He's delightful and I am grateful for him.

From Miles

Miles is thankful for gobstoppers.

While I'm not familiar with those, it does remind me that I am very thankful for candy and in particular, chocolate.

I eat chocolate every day.

And, I like it.

So, I'm like Miles, thankful for candy.

Conference Weekends

Sometimes we have family here, sometimes we don't.

But, whatever, I enjoy relaxing and listening to conference.

It's always inspiring and motivating.

Plus, tonite, I'm going to see Beauty and the Beast with Stephanie and her kids.

What a great day, and I am so very thankful.
