Today, I'm grateful:
- for the kids in our ward's primary, who sang their hearts out for me today (sort of), my last day as their chorister (hurray).
- that two weeks after Christmas, we have the most gorgeous sunny day to enjoy (I love Texas in the wintertime!)
- that I finally felt well enough to get all the Christmas stuff put away
- for a brand new year (and only one more summer in H-town)
- that I'm pretty much living my dream life
- that my kids are so great, in so many ways
- that my husband is worthy, responsible, and respected by me and many others
- that I can easily will myself out of feeling bad about life by looking on the bright side
- that I come from pretty much the most awesome family ever
- that we have food on our table, clothes in our closets, and gas in our car
- that we now get to go to church at 9 o'clock instead of 1
- that I have a normal, non-holiday, non-travelling, regular old week ahead of me
- for perspective, which I'm trying to cultivate
- that I am loved beyond measure by my Heavenly Father, who for some reason, sees fit to bless me with these and infinitely more blessings every day.

I love lists like this! We are so blessed!
man, i wish my church would start at 9 instead of 1:15!! that is a great list though les. i think i'd have to ditto all of them - except for the whole husband and kids bit. :)
So many of my blessings match your list exactly. We are SOOOO blessed, aren't we?
this blog post is one of the MILLION reasons I love you, girl - you give me more perspective and make me feel better just by reading your words - blessed indeed.
Mama taught me a long time ago to think of "3 good things" every day. I was feeling a little down a couple of weeks ago and Martha challenged me to do that every day and write it down. It helps so much. Great list!
