A New Year & A New List to get to 1000 Gifts

1-  I'm thankful that my son opens up to me about things.
2- I'm also thankful for cozy cottages in the winter with wood burning stoves.
3- I'm thankful for how thoughtful Meghan is in regards to Christmas gifts. She is amazing. Did I mention it last week? I can't remember. Anyway, it is worth repeating.
4- It's a weird Thursday because all day today and yesterday I haven't been able to remember what day it is. I think it is because Christmas and New Year's were on Tuesday. I'm thankful for routines.
5- It wouldn't be right if I didn't mention how much I appreciate my husband for continuing to be himself, even when I try like crazy to change him! I don't ever want to stifle that guy or kill his spirit. God made him the way he did, so I need to focus on his many good qualities and take it one step further by mentioning it here. ;)
6- Movies, especially Les Miserables. I just enjoyed it for the second time tonight. I'm grateful that I could afford to treat J. I loved it even more this time when I wasn't distracted.


Okay, there's a start to my new list. I'm going to try to get to 1000 by the end of 2013. It should be easy. I'm going to be a little more random about my list and not just do it on Thursday this year. I have to mix it up a little so I don't get texts from a certain little sister of mine. I appreciated her reminders and encouragement, but I'm hoping I'll be a little more self-motivated. Since I'm the big sister, I need to be a better example.
