Thankful Tuesday

It's that time again, to count five things I am thankful for. Makes me a more grateful person overall.

1. I am thankful that my girls have the opportunity to go to summer camp. We are beyond blessed to be able to send them to the Salvation Army's Camp Kuratli. Both McKayla and Natalie will be there five days. It's a special place for me. I have been going since I was four and many of my summer memories include that place. I love that my girls will have that experience. 
2. I am thankful for my neighbor. He was kind enough to water our plants while we were on vacation and they didn't die! I even had two little yellow pear tomatoes to eat. YUM! 
3. I am thankful for the cooler weather. We have been having thunder storms, which are nice to hear. 
4. I am thankful for my husband who puts up with  my mood swings and general crankiness. He is amazing. 
5. I am thankful for my phone. It has allowed me to keep in touch with my family back home. I call my daddy a couple times a week and my sister almost every week night on my way home. I have also started calling my brother and it's nice to talk to them. 

1000 gifts: 3 gifts yellow

• The sunshine is a gift. Beautiful shiny yellow warm rays on my face. 
• Daffodils are a gift. Every time I see them I am reminded of my mommy and how we used to bring her a bunch of them from the field across the street. 
• Sunflowers are a gift. A constant reminder of a friend I lost long ago.
