My Favorite Things...

Per Katie's suggestion, I am going to take 10 minutes to brainstorm my favorite things and thank the Lord for all the blessings in my life:

rainy days curled up in sweats and a blanket--hot tea--walking around Capen park with the wind blowing over me--getting warm blankets for hospital patients--building my birth books library--hot chocolate--Mizzou football games--blogging--buying a new dress--emailing and calling far-away friends--road trips--musicals--reminiscing good times--recognizing the healing that has gently greeted me regarding the not-so-good times--pens that work really well--the Office and Friends--Busch Stadium--pregnant bellies--fighting Dad for the sports page at breakfast--sweet words from sisters--manicures and pedicures--watching a movie I know by heart--tortellini--holding hands--dancing--the first snow--Turkey Day--Christmas at Faf's--Bud Light Lime--coffee dates with girlfriends--daydreaming about "the one" and wondering when he'll show up--YL camps--not being able to put a really good book down--talks with Mom--good hair days--St. Louis--newborn babies--birth art--a really good margarita with a heavily salted rim--Mom's chocolate chip banana bread--my legs--making photo collages--watching the leaves change colors--making my friends watch birth movies--Harry Potter--October baseball (but really only when the Cardinals are in the playoffs)--weddings--hearing God's voice in my life--surprises--bubble baths--uncontrollable laughter.

Thank You, Father. Thanks for being in the big stuff and the little stuff. Thanks for lavishing your love on me so.
