very thankful

 
i love the month of november and i love thanksgiving.
there is always so much to be thankful for, and this year isn't any different.
while we are always thankful for the more obvious things in our life
our warm home, great jobs, loving family & friends
this year i've tried to focus on the smaller things, because they matter too!

i am thankful for a husband that gets up first on weekday mornings. i like to think it's because he takes twice as long to get ready as i do, but i know he does it to let me sleep a few extra minutes

i'm thankful for a niece that says "i lope you" in the sweetest voice that just melts our hearts, 
even from 2,700 miles away

i'm thankful for to do-lists & felt tip pens, because they make the work day so much better

i'm thankful for simple traditions steve & i have started, like sunday walks and tacos on tuesday

i'm thankful to have returned to a normal dinner time since november 6th

i'm thankful for a church calling that has pushed me out of my comfort zone &
gives me the opportunity to serve

i'm thankful for a level-headed sister that always gives the most level-headed advice

***

i hope everyone will take time this weekend to give thanks for the simple things!
