As the year ends, my gratitude journal…

I’m grateful for -

• Hubby’s continued good health
• The smile on John’s face and the twinkle in his eye
• Ryan and Lindsay living so close and being able to visit so often, I still pinch myself sometimes…
• Maggie’s recovery from liver shunt and sweet Mollie in our lives
• Good friends that mean more to me with each passing year
• The country life, it soothes my soul every single day
• Online friends, I have some really special ones; without the internet I would have never known they existed
• A bit more wisdom, it really does come with age
• And finally, I’m grateful for the ability to get up every day and be self sufficient, it’s a wonderful thing that I try not to take for granted….
