Starting with a Thankful (and quiet) Heart

Happy Monday!

The rain has returned, but I'm still on cloud nine after a great weekend and won't let the grey skies pull me down.

I'm about to head out for a run with Albus, so this is quickie today. Today I'm thankful for:

1. the unconditional love and support of my dad.
2. the house-filling aroma of fresh-baked pumpkin bread made with pumpkin fresh from the patch.
3. one-on-one time with children.
4. the intermittent rain of the Seattle area - allowing me to get in a run while the rain takes a break
5. the physical challenge of a balance ball (yes, I finally got myself started with the 6 week plan in Bounce Your Body Beautiful that I mentioned so many weeks ago)

And, YOU, kind reader? Be sure to leave a note about one thing that makes you thankful today. Have a great week!

my daughter shoved a french fry up her nose.

and that was the 'worst thing' to happen to me so far today.

I am blessed.

Just one?

I am thankful for the unconditional love and warm environment my parents gave me and my two sisters to learn and grow to be the individual people we are today. Thanks Mom and Dad.

I love your idea here. I keep a gratitude journal. I jot something down every day. I am thankful for good sleep. Doesn't that make life wonderful when you are rested?
