today, i am thankful...
for my new thrifted green rain booties!
for my morning routine, and alyssa asking me to coffee tomorrow.
for little treats & snackies at work.
for a really sweet coworker.  today was her last day and it was sad to say goodbye to her.  i am thankful for her.
for really good chats at lunch with vic and sarah.  i love our conversations!
for sarah.  she's such a trooper in the midst of working with some tough kids today.  she's gotta be the very best mom.  she's amazing with kiddos.  i love whenever she's working!
for the anticipation all day of being with my whole family and a long weekend at the end of it!! (i had even more anticipation because there was somethin in the water at work today.. kiddos had crazy behaviors and it was tough at the end)
for going over to my parents' house to find it full!  both of my sisters & dave & two of his buddies, from canada and germany.  
for beautiful lives lived in really cool ways for Jesus around the world.  i was so inspired by dave's friends.
for a little proposal from paige, asking sidney and i to be her maids of honor!!
for letters from both of my sisters that brought me to tears.
for exciting weekend plans!
for the Father's grace for me.  i didn't feel like my best self today, or like i honored Him well.  those kind of things are not always evident to others and it's crazy how on the outside our 'off' days seem normal to others because the 'off' things are always the littlest things no one may notice, but i know myself and know the ways i let my selfishness or entitlement or gluttony or discontentment creep out and slip, even in small seemingly minor ways, and i feel like that happened today.  so i'm thankful for grace and all the beauty that tomorrow will bring.  a fresh start as well.   

all is gift.
