10 things I'm grateful for that reveal my shallow worst:
- High speed internet
- Getting my family room remodeled by Kenneth Brown
- The Odyssey - corners like it's on rails yet rides like a limo
- Sippy cups and all the other kids' gadgets I get suckered into buying, but really make my life more manageable
- The assortment of readily available, cute girls' clothes everywhere I go (This would also make my list of 10 things I'm not grateful for)
- Maclaren double stroller - the best double stroller on the market (It corners like it's on rails yet rides like a limo)
- Costco - the free samples, the books, the toys, the produce, the appliances, every aisle.
- Friends that don't mind taking our kids off our hands so Joe and I can go out
- Technology. Without it I couldn't snap digital photos of our kids all day long, call nationwide unlimited (nights and weekends), shop without leaving the house, blog, and chat online with babes all day.
- Coupons - I don't truly feel like I'm getting a good deal unless I'm buying it with a coupon. I have been told before that I am a marketing person's dream come true.
10 things I'm genuinely grateful for:
- Having a husband that is fully devoted to our family and balances me out
- Our 2 sweet and funny girls
- An upbringing full of memories I can now laugh about, and that has made me who I am.
- Salvation and sanctification
- My health and strength and the continued health of those I love
- My parents and bro, who have pushed me to always be better and influenced my diabolical brain from the time of my impressionable youth.
- All the inspiration out there, everywhere I turn - it keeps my creative juices flowing
- Being home to experience my children and all their triumphs
- Our church and the family of believers we have there
- Girlfriends that get me, including Cha (who keeps feeding me these lists and always gives me something to read)
