Stole this Idea:D

My I wants ....

A vacation
To meet Charlie ( My newest nephew)
To suddenly drop 30 pounds I gained while taking hormones
An organized house
A helper with Laundry that does not involve unfolding everything I have just folded (looking at you Leland)
And an extra car;)
And of course to be pregnant

What I got...

An adorable 2 year old (who turns 3 in September)
A hard working Husband ( who keeps a roof over our heads and food on the table, and thankfully clothes on our backs)
A good Family
A car that works
and for now my health!

Trying to be grateful for what you have is hard till even when you realize there are so many people that would love to have what you have. So its something I will have to work on for life it seems to be happy with what I have. God provides for us and maybe if I can let go of my illusion of control I will be grateful for what I have:D

I've been doing that lately--trying to list all the things that I have instead of focusing on all the things I don't have. It makes me happier. But you're right--not easy! :) Love you!

My wants... for my son to be number one on your wants list. Sadly we will have to settle for number two. :)

Oh hey... I just realized that number one will be realized on Tuesday. And number two will be realized on September 7th. ROCK ON!!! :)
