As of yesterdays' happenings, I was having a hard time being thankful. Sounds horrible, but it's true. So yesterday the thing I was thankful for was rest and sleep. Rest that lets your mind be at ease and not worrying. I was thankful to go to bed no longer wondering who our next President would be. I was thankful for sleep that let my mind and body rest and not be in dismay. Yes, sleep was the highlight of yesterday for me (I took a long nap with Kara!!).
Today I will say I am thankful for hope. I am thankful that hope lives in me. I am thankful that I have hope for tomorrow, next year, and the future beyond that. I am thankful that I can rise above being scared for our nation and can hope that good will come to us all. Hope is a wonderful thing. Today I am very thankful for the hope in my life.
PS. I have a few pics of the monkey to share. She's such a little doll.
Laying on daddy's shoulder at the Halloween party. Aww!
Sitting with mommy in front of the Halloween display.
Trying her first taste of funnel cake at a festival!
She wrapped herself up in the blanket. Recognize it Aunt Sandi?
Kara and me at a castle ruins.
Just the three of us!
