I missed yesterday, but thats okay, because I have an extra lot to be thankful for today. First of all, HOME. I haven't been home this year as much as last year, not half as much actually, but I think it has actually made me much more thankful for my family and friends that are still in Alma. There is just something about being in my house and knowing that I'm in Alma that helps me feel better after a bad week. That sounds so cliche I know, but it is so true. Last night, I finally got to spend some much needed time with my friends Chelsi, Scott, and Jessica. Today, until tomorrow afternoon, I've been babysitting Kyli, Lathan, and Landon. If you've talked to me for five minutes, you've heard entirely too much about them I'm sure, but they really are my favorite people in the entire world. We played hard all day and then they went to bed a little earlier than normal. That was fine by me, because Chelsi, Jessica, and Michael came over to visit for a little while. Sometimes, I need to be reminded how sweet the relationships I have here are. They really are more and more important to me, so I'm extremely thankful that I finally got to see almost everybody I love from home.
Go ahead & love all over this sweet picture of the kids from Halloween. Lathan was Iron Man, Kyli was the Frog Princess, and Landon was her frog. So sweet! I hope you don't ever take for granted your home, family, and friends who have influenced you so much, because I definitely do. Look for those things in your life in the next few days and thank Jesus for beautiful beginnings and, of course, grace. Love Love Love.
