thankful

I am thankful for, in no particular order:

bike rides
sunshine
levi's
my squirrely creative writing kids
my new nickname - "Miss Morqueesha"
dixon ticonderoga #2 pencils
nutella
honest friends
a paycheck
Betty the drive-thru lady
the moldy grass smell in spring
turkey sandwiches
a boyfriend who likes turkey sandwiches too
driving & listening to the rain
my crazy 8th grade confirmation girls
miss zimanske
the cold side of the pillow
grandma's quilts
my church
knowing all the songs on the radio in the morning
grace

"But God's not finished. He's waiting around to be gracious to you.
He's gathering strength to show mercy to you.
God takes the time to do everything right—everything.
Those who wait around for him are the lucky ones." Isaiah 30:18
