Grateful

I am grateful. For so many things...

Ben, coming down with the cold most of us had last week (while he was recovering from having his wisdom teeth removed), took the girls fishing today. He said it had to happen because it keeps getting put off for whatever reason, usually weather.

Plants appearing to take hold even though they weren't properly hardened off before I got them into the garden last week. Some will not make it, but we have a few extras that look better than some in the ground still in pots with which we can replace them. It will be a set-back, no doubt, but hopefully they'll recover quickly.

Soaker hoses.

Beautiful flowers growing and blooming in our yard. Some are new, and some keep coming back bigger and more beautiful every year.

Beautiful, brilliant kids.

Three weeks until summer vacation.

New cans of paint waiting to go on the walls of our downstairs bath and upstairs living room bought at a 50% off Sherwin Williams discount (and not one, but two, brothers-in-law who are employed by said company!).

Teaching again.

My I-pod.

Hanging laundry on the line.

Rain (not at the same time as laundry on the line).

Our awesome library system.

Sweet tea (with stevia, mint leaves, and lemon). Yummmm.
