Success

I am grateful for success:
1.  Zachary's at swimming lessons, he can swim all the way across now and knows it.
2.  Kyle's at work, he is becoming more comfortable with his situation here.  Yesterday he said he was grateful for a vacation that Kevin is taking.

Children can bring joy

I am grateful for
1.  Laughter:  Hyrum really started laughing today.  Zachary was playing peek-a-boo.
2.  Children who are not sociopathic

Smiles

I am grateful when something happens that
1.  makes me smile.
2.  makes my children smile at me.
3.  involves my children smiling at one another.

If I look for such instances I see them daily, sometimes I just forget to look and forget to smile.

Temple

I am grateful for the temple.  The wonderful feeling I experience when there, the eternal perspective it helps me recall, and the covenants and promises that I remember.  I am also grateful for the sealing power found there.

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

2 Rs 2 Cs and an L

I am grateful for:
1.  rain (the smell mainly)
2.  love (that my children are not to old to say it often)
3.  reading (my ability and the opportunity to teach Zach)
4.  charts (these help me and the kids stay on task)
5.  cake mixes (not cake, but the mix which can be made into so many things).

Fathers

Well it is Father's Day so naturally I will put some specifics that I am grateful for involving the fathers in my life.
1.  A husband who is wonderful with babies, he can often quiet Hyrum better than I can, what a blessing.
2.  A dad who supports me by always being excited to hear from me, know what is going on in my life and the lives of my husband and kids.
