It's hard

It has been hard to write two things each day, not because it is hard to find things to be grateful for , but because I am not on the computer, and simply forget.
So today I am grateful for:
1.  Faith in God program.  I love being surrounded by young people who are full of excitement.
2.  Material.  I have so much of it and since we are looking to move I am sewing and sewing and enjoying it.

Heaters

I am super grateful for heaters.  It has been a cold last couple of days, and I love being able to heat a room and find a warm place to cuddle up.

Teachers and Blankets

I am grateful for:
Teachers.  They play such a role in the lives of my children and I am grateful for their sacrifices and support.
Blankets.  The last couple of days have been cold and our house is not well insulated, so I am grateful for blankets.

Relaxing and Laundry Help

Today I am grateful for:

A relaxed day, no fighting, no appointments, just simple relaxing.

A washer and dryer.  My life would be hard without them.

Sewing - Trips

Today I am grateful for...

My sewing machine which allows me to create and relieve stress.
The joy of preparing a trip.

Singing - Orange

I am grateful for...

The ability to sing.  I love the enjoyment I get from doing so and the spirit it brings to others as well as the compliments from others.

My new orange dress, it makes me feel young.

House and Washer

I am grateful for a warm house.  It is pouring rain today and I am grateful for the dry warmth.

I am grateful for a washer and dryer.  Life would be definitely harder without them.

Little Things

I am grateful for:
1.  The Laundry being folded
2.  Pandora's Disney music station
3.  A little baby's smile

Reading

I know reading again!!!
1.  I am grateful I have a husband who willingly reads to our kids.  He read to Zachary's class yesterday.
2.  I am grateful for new technology that allows me to read online.
 

Riding & Reading

I have been delinquent in keeping this up, and it seems ironic that it is at the time of year when many people strive to remember and list what they are thankful for.  Well, I will try to do better.
Today I am thankful for:
1.  A vehicle that works well and is able to deliver my children, husband, and I safely to the desired destination.
2.  Reading, I know that this has been listed many times, but I am grateful for the ability and seeing it develop in my children.

Trick or treat

1.  Warm weather for Halloween.  I walked around in short sleeves and was very comfortable.
2.  A new toy.  We bought a Zoom tablet.  Expensive but fun!!!
3.  Treats:  The kids brought plenty home to share, I sure do like Almond Joy candy bars.

I need this now

Wow do I need this journal now.  For some reason I am not focusing on blessings the past few days.  So what am I grateful for...
1.  Plenty
2.  A little girl who sat for photos
3.  Zach being willing to do reading lessons with me
4.  Hyrum sleeping through the night twice
5.  Eric being willing to smile and share hugs

Boxes

I am grateful for two aspects of boxes.
1. The fact that we have so many boxes means that we have been abundantly blessed.
2. The number of boxes left to unpack is slowly diminishing.

1. Blogs of family and friends. I love that I can keep in contact with people even when I am far away.
2. This gratitude blog, as I read back over entries I am reminded of how blessed I am.

Computer

I am grateful for a computer.
1. I have so little to do (no books, scrap-booking, sewing, baking, etc.) that the computer really does satisfy a need.
