I love...

...Jesus...my heart is grateful for all He gives and provides.

This is just a list of a few things I love...and all of it (even the little things) come straight from the fact that even though I love Jesus, He loves me a lot more and has for some crazy reason, seen fit to bless me with a life that I am blessed beyond reason to have...

...being able to call my mom and yammer about life for an hour...and hanging up and feeling much better...
...having a daddy that loves me and helps take care of me...with everything...even taxes.
...a sister that is 13 years older than me but that I get to hangout with and learn from as I (we) figure out this thing called life...
...a brother-in-law who gives of his time to work with our little Cardinal Council and loves my sister and neice and nephew more than anything in the world...
...a neice and nephew that always make me smile and give me big hugs even at school when I'm "a teacher"...
...a grandmother who doesn't believe in living life half way...
...a Sunday School class who loves to socialize...and be like tape...
...Sunday school leaders who become friends...
...friends who watch my crazy reality shows with me and then proceed to sit and talk about them like we really know them...
...Coke or Dr. Pepper with ICE (preferably Sonic ice)...
...a job that, while difficult, is where I am called to be and challenges me daily...
...a church that truly wants to follow and go where God is calling them and believes in the importance of the future generations...
...a family that deals with me and my need for no change...
...a car that works...a washer and dryer that work...an apartment that keeps me warm...
...friends who pray for small puddles and no rain from 1:30 until 2:00 so that I can take my kids out for recess...
...friends who love me in spite of my attitude on some days...
...monster cookies...
...flipflops...long sleeve shirts...rolled up jeans...
...summer camp...fall retreat...
...driving with the windows down...
...the sound of a baseball bat hitting the ball...
...downtown Franklin...
...friends who let me steal awesome paintings off their walls...
...road trips...aquariums...zoos...
...laughing until my stomach hurts...
...french vanilla creamer with a little bit of sugar and coffee...
