30 Days of Thankfulness: Day Twenty-Three

i may be AWOL the next couple of days...we are headed to the land of internet-less-ness :)

i'm sure i'll be thankful for time with family, turkey, the weather (that is supposed to be surprisingly warm and gorgeous for late November), and many more things :)

in the meantime...today i am thankful for...

...chick-fil-a giving me a free small peppermint chocolate chip milkshake this morning...and, i'm also thankful i was able to hit the elliptical at the Y for 45 minutes before consuming said milkshake and outweighing all the benefits of the workout...it was worth it! :)

...leaving a CLEAN house to come home to...mom, you would be sooo proud, but truthfully we will likely have lived in it and made it much less clean before you get here sunday :)

...being the BEST MOM EVER because i gave kate toast for breakfast (love that it is truly the little things)

...Romans...where i've been camped out in my morning quiet time...amazingly encouraging considering the current focus is on the unrighteousness of man (ME) and how much i deserve His wrath at the judgment day. oh how much more thankful that truth makes me for Jesus...His death, His blood, His mercy, His kindness
