I've been inspired by my friend Jill to take the time to list some things I'm thankful. She calls it Multitude Monday (which I believe she got from somewhere else, but who knows?). She is taking time to list 1,000 things she's thankful for. Growing up, my pastor, Dr. Lindsay Jr., challenged us every year to make a list of 100 things you're thankful for. I don't know if I ever did it as kid, but I have as an adult. When I journaled in college, I always took the time to list 5 things I was thankful for each day. It's cool to look back and see what they were. So, I am stepping up to the challenge. I always want to thank God for even the small blessings in my life! Who's going to join me?
1. Time to spend with just Dan and the girls
2. My daughter's laughter
3. Massages :)
4. Pedicures and cute toes (which I do not have right now!)
