Thankful For :: 291 - 300

Wow! I can't believe I'm at 300 thankfulness items already! I think that just goes to show you how much we have to be thankful for if we only stop and look around us.

291. CPA's - people who actually want to deal with taxes for a living

292. Low-carb noodles = welcome back lasagna

293. Grace and forgiveness - from the Lord, from others, and even from myself for my own mistakes

294. A short commute (saves on gas)

295. Homemade chocolate truffles

296. The ability to breathe through my nose (I'm not there yet, but I won't take it for granted!)

297. Parents who pray for their kids

298. Music - it never fails to help me relax

299. St. Patrick's Day decorations

300. A great big God who created the universe, and yet knows and loves me

C.S. Lewis once said, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream." Dream BIG. After going "there and back again," The Hubs & I have created a home that is full of books, stimulating conversation, and the laughter of our five kids. We have been the recipients of Amazing Grace, and our life goals can be summed up in four words: Love God, love people.

Amen on #291... I can relate to that today! (Just finished doing my taxes with my accountant friend - thank goodness for her!) She swears she enjoys it, but I'd rather take a beating, I think. :o)
