Day 266
September 23, 2014
I'm grateful I finally made it to the doctor and that I can finally start doing the things I need to for myself. I gotta stop putting myself on the back burner!

I'm grateful for my baby brother (okay he's not a baby anymore) on his birthday.

Day 261
September 18, 2014
I'm grateful for people who understand when I finally break down and ask for help. I don't do that very much, and I'm grateful when people just hug me and tell me it's okay.

Day 260
September 17, 2014
I'm grateful (it's been a hard day so I'm stretching a smidge) for solutions even if I don't agree with them. I understand them, but I don't agree with them. Sometimes it is necessary to do things that we don't like for our betterment. That doesn't mean it doesn't suck, but it is what it is. And hopeful, with much prayer and faith, we will see the labors bear fruit.

Day 259
September 16, 2014
I'm grateful for good friends who can soothe my soul when bad things happen. My heart is hurting for Baylee's pain right now and I am overwhelmed and underequipped....but she is strong and we will survive. I am truly grateful for those who can lift my spirits so I can lift hers.

Day 258
September 15, 2014
I'm grateful that Felix made it to New York safely. These trips are getting a little exhausting, so it's hard to be grateful when he leaves. But I am grateful we have a sense of humor and can have food wars on Facebook.

Day 257
September 14, 2014
I'm grateful to have been a part of a neat Regional Conference. To hear Apostles speak. And to (selfishly) not have our ward boundaries change. And to be the first ward, not the eighth ward (weird!). And for our previous Bishopric! And our amazing new Bishopric! So much exciting packed into one day!

I'm grateful for a truly inspiring Stake Conference. I have some things to work on (don't I always). But I am so grateful for inspired words that are so gentle and kind and motivating.

Day 255
September 12, 2014
I'm more in awe, but really grateful. 9/11 didn't end on 9/11 this year....it seemed to spill over. We aren't done remembering. Perhaps we are at a turning point and not just remembering 9/11, but remember what our nation was founded on and what makes her stand apart.

Day 254
September 11, 2014
On the 13th anniversary of 9/11 my heart is always heavy, yet I am grateful for so many things. I'm grateful to live in America, for freedom, for first responders, for the military, for military families, for those who gave all so I can have the freedoms I do. I'm grateful that I can speak freely to defend my freedoms. I'm grateful the Constitution. I'm grateful for my family. I'm grateful for the Gospel, for the scriptures, for my Savior. I'm grateful for the Atonement and that I can be forgiven and that I can forgive. I'm grateful.

September 7, 2014
I'm grateful for fast Sunday. Although the first Sunday back at 9 am is a little on the rough side....I did like having a 3 hour nap! And I'm grateful that Noah earned his star scout and is on his way to his Life (which he has all the requirements for....just gotta wait for time to pass!) And we can start working on that Eagle!
