Thankful Thursday

I know sometimes I get caught up in things and forget to stop and remember and give thanks and praise for the gifts I have. What I am thankful for today:

- for Max and Zoey chasing each other around the house... showing their laughter, and love for each other and reminding me that they are healthy and active and my great blessings

- for my cell phone... Normally I wouldn't think of this, but during this separation from Ross, it is nice to be able to be reached, no matter where I am, so that we can chat a minute when he has free time throughout the day

- for downloadable music... I love that I can just buy one song instead of a whole CD... I really love all kinds of music and having it around, playing in the house, as a soft background or something fun to get dancing to and show my kids my awesome dance moves:) Anyway, buying just one song makes it affordable to have the variety that I like

- for all of Zoey's crafts, some I even get to wear proudly, like a paper bracelet or pink bead necklace!!

- and especially for hugs... Both of them willingly give hugs and say "ohhhh" while doing it, and they also let me hold them for as long as I need, which these days, really helps!!

What I am not thankful for however... TEXAS A&M losing b-ball tonight, but they made it to the sweet 16, which is pretty much unheard of for my football loving alma mater... until next year!! WHOOP!

Well, the Salukis lost to Kansas. I was hoping they'd go all the way. They even had a chance to play your Aggies Jill!!! Coulda, woulda, shoulda!!!! :)

I saw the end of that game too! Thought of you, what is that Saluki again, an ancient hunting dog??
