I am jumping on my sister and friends, bandwagon a little late. I won't get an entire week of daily thanks in, and don't want to even promise another, but I am so grateful for all that I have in life. I am grateful for those days of insight into what is really important. Tonight the kids were running around the house like crazy people with underwear on their heads and everything. My initial thought was, what are they doing in the back room, I just folded all that laundry and put it away, and, I can only imagine what sort of a mess awaits me. Then I watched them interact and laugh with each other, and was instantly grateful for their friendship with each other, and the blessing of having them so close to one another. I realized whatever mess awaited me was worth it. Little Cache thought they were the best parade ever. I am also realizing recently how rapidly time is passing, and it horrifies me. As much work as life is right now, I would happily do it the rest of my life if I could keep my children small and all to myself. Although I know each stage is fun, I love the little world we live in right now. Most days anyway. :) I know I can always do better, and I am grateful for tomorrow, for the chance to wake up and do better than I did today.

If you have a Gratitude Attitude...

In love with the Cullens
Tasha, Steph, Crystal, Ronda and Me :)
It is true, we hit opening night of Twilight, along with lots of young teenagers, a few couples and lots of woman. We waited in line for just under 2 hours. We were so proud of ourselves when we first arrived and thought we were only a few groups back in line. Little did we know that the line extended down the hallway and back to the theater. But don't you worry, Ronda and I worked a little scheme and ended up being within the first ten into the theater and flung our purses out to save a couple seats. Ughhh, the things we do for Edward. However, lets be honest, I wasn't thrilled with the cast that was chosen for the movie, until I saw it. Wow, I was pleased with the way they depicted everyone, especially Emmitt, Carlise, EDWARD, and even James and Jasper in their own way. I really liked the show, and enjoyed being sucked back into the lives of the Cullens, and Bella. The only thing that made me mad, was knowing that I have to wait for the next movie to come out. We had a great night; Dinner, and a movie with wonderful girlfriends is sure to refresh anyone... especially when it involves a little eye candy.
