THANKFUL

for today and for this dear red-headed sister of mine, a creative and adventurous soul who sure makes me feel loved.
for old cracked and chipped windows and doors
for rainy Saturdays
for gold-leafed Sundays
for the Clair de Lune and how it reminds me of a really special time I had with my sister this summer
for letters from Sidney that have verses at the end of them
for Michael Scott's relationship with Toby on the Office
for Anna Mateffy and for the way God is growing her heart
for the Brink family... just the fact that that family exists makes me happy.
for gospel music, and definitely for this song... my favorite these days.
for Holland being my Christmas date, and just being in my life and caring about all of my silly little stories about people at home that she doesn't know
for Sean and Jim and TJ and Isaac
for Cory and Matt, my two favorite caf workers (besides Cassie & Dayna) serving me my dinner with warm smiles! (:
for the girls on my floor
for my sister Paige and her beautiful, beautiful heart
for God being a holy God, and not a flimsy comfortable God that we can fit into our lives where it's convenient, as appetizing as that usually sounds, I'm glad that's not who He is.  Because then God wouldn't be God... we would be.  And I don't want to be God... I wouldn't be a good one.
for the big windows in our room that let in a lot of light when it's sunny
for Sarah.
for having the opportunity to learn something new every day.
