Thankful Thursday

I am going to spend my day being as thankful as possible for all of the wonderful things in my life.

Right now, our awesome nanny is helping me get through some laundry while I'm at work.  Our toilet broke the other night, spraying water everywhere (clean, tank water, thank goodness) and soaking the bathroom.  This means that I have some sopping wet beach towels and a bathroom rug that need serious laundering.  By the time I get home, they will be clean, dry, and folded.  Thank you!

Definitely thankful for the plumber who came yesterday, even though it didn't happen until 4pm, thankful that the repair happened!

Also right now, on the other side of the country, a wonderful friend is in labor with her second kiddo.  While I wish so much to be there to meet the new little mister, I'm focusing on being grateful that he decided to stay put long enough for his daddy to get there (from Africa) for his arrival!

I have some girl time scheduled with a friend tonight.  We live so close, yet see each other so rarely due to life getting in the way (me: kid and work, her: serious grad school).  So excited to spend some quality time with her - and, I can't lie, I'm excited about some sweet food, too.

Frank and I are blessed to be a part of Young Life in our area, and while it is a lot of work, prayer, and effort, just getting to be a part of something so important, so eternal, and so exciting is a gift.

Happy Thankful Thursday!
