I have been slacking on the Grati-Tuesday posts for the past two weeks because having a newborn is a little bit of a whirlwind. I was so grateful that my mom stayed to help with Braden all of last week. As we were sitting on the back porch on Tuesday (the day after we got back from the hospital), I couldn’t … Continue reading “Grateful Every Day”
What small thing that happened to day are you grateful for? I’m grateful for every time Dallas hugged me today. Wednesday is my due date and I had a doctor appointment today, so it was a little rough to hear that I was basically at the same dilation as last week. I am so behind grateful to be pregnant, but … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What sights are you grateful for today? Today I’m grateful for the mountains and the sky. That would sound pretty corny if I were to say it out loud…Really though. Every direction that I look, in the neighborhood that we’re living in right now, is AMAZING. I’ve posted pictures of what it looks like from the front of our house … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What about your body are you grateful for? Today, I am grateful to have a healthy body. I feel very lucky to not have any diseases or impairments that would make living life a little bit more challenging. I have complete empathy for those that do, and I realize that I am very blessed to have the body that I … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What small thing that you use daily are you grateful for? When I think about things that I use every day I think of my daily rituals of getting up, or getting ready for bed. So that made me realize that I am SO grateful for my toothbrush and contacts. Aren’t contacts the GREATEST invention of all time? The people I see … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What friend/family member are you grateful for today? I have SO many people to be grateful for every day, but today I am grateful for Dallas’s grandma, Nanny. We have been living with her and Papa since August, and we have been so grateful for such a nice place to live as we transition into our next life adventure. Back when … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What sound are you grateful for today? Today we had another doctors appointment and it was the usual – get measured and listen to the babies heart beat. This time he was super excited about something (it may have been the cinnamon toast and chocolate I ate right before…), and the doctor had to wait a minute for him to … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What in nature are you grateful for? I’m deciding that this counts – I am grateful for the colors in nature. It always amazes me how the colors of everything in nature are so deep and beautiful. It’s even hard to capture it in a picture because it’s just so much more beautiful in real life. Think about it. Everyone is … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What song are you most grateful for? I have a whole playlist on my iTunes literally labeled “positive mix”, because I am the bomb at mix playlists (formerly mix CDs). It has uplifting Christian and gospel (Your Love – Brandon Heath, I Can Only Imagine – Mercy Me, Overcomer – Mandisa), empowering hip hop/pop (Hall of Fame – The Script, … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What abilities are you grateful for today? When I read this question I actually looked up “ability” on Google (obviously) and it says a skill, talent, or proficiency. But it’s also if you are just able to do something. Have you seen “Me Before You” yet? Oh my heck. It is the happiest sad movie (mostly happy, I think) I have ever … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
