I don't have a card, not even a note,
Just this little collection of words that I wrote
To tell you how lucky, how happy I am
To be living this life, so simple yet GRAND.
To own a new home, and within these walls
There are footsteps, and voices, and welcome phone calls.
There is laughing, and giggling, even squealing at times,
There's of course banging and stomping, but there are still nursery ryhmes...
There are children who I still stare in awe of today
There's the sound of DH coming home...hooray!
There are two people who love me more than words could express-
My parents, two minutes away none the less.
There's a school that we love, just down the road,
There are pictures all over this warm, safe abode-
They all tell the story of the life that I live-
A gift that's so big, only God Himself can give.
How thankful I am, these words only start,
To convey all the love that I have in my heart
For my family, my friends, my blessings that touch
my heart and my soul...I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. ~yeahshewroteit :) By me :)
**********************************************
To all the rest of my family, friends, relatives, and all of my wonderful blogging friends, THANK YOU for being you. I am so grateful for all of you and leave you with this AWESOME quote I found:
"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."
Had to throw this one in there! DH met PAULA DEEN last week! LOVE HER. LOVE her food. Wonder what she's making today for dinner...YUMMERS!
HUGS.
