day 2...

today i have so many little things to be thankful for and it puts such a huge smile on my face, its always been the littlest things i charish the most and a day when they just keep piling up is almost overwhelming!!
so today, i am thankful for...
 - 3 little boys who love going to school
 - for a morning spent with my husband, sharing coffee that we got for free with our coupon from starbucks, for thanksgiving blend that tastes so amazing with a splash of eggnog in it! and a walk in the warmth of the fall sunshine!
 - for the $40 i made selling clothes to the consignment store (that will help the christmas budget!)
 - for the smile on Sicilya's face that melts my heart and makes me so grateful to have such a happy, healthy  and content baby girl!
 - for a church that my kids love going to just as much as frank and i do, and their wednesday evening kids club that gives us an evening out (although tonight frank is working, so i think Sicilya and i may head to starbucks for some time stuck in a good book!)
 - for the coupons for free frosty's at wendys that the boys got for halloween...it gives me an easy, yet very special treat to endulge in with them tonight before we pick their daddy up from work!!  (and to hear the excitement in their voices as they figure out which means more, the frosty or going to dads work!)

and the one big thing i am thankful for is just today, November 2...on this day 21 years ago, i became a big sister and although there have been times in my life when i may have found that to be very annoying!!....i am grateful for my brother and i can only pray that he knows how much i love him!  Happy Birthday Dan...be safe, enjoy and welcome to a world of being a real adult!!  hopefully the gap between us will start to close now that we are officially in the same age bracket!  i LOVE u!
