Days Like This.

Extremely grateful for days like this. It's Thursday, not really any different than any other day this week, but for some unexplainable reason (God) I have an extra dosage of gratefulness this morning. It's gorgeous outside, and although I still technically have to sit in my office for most of the day just looking out the window and knowing it's out there waiting for me is making me smile.

We are extremely blessed, sometimes I don't think I give God enough credit for all of the amazing things he does for us only a daily basis. Correction- I know I don't give him the credit he deserves, but today I will fix that.

Ever think about all the little things that make up the greatness of your day? Your coffee being the right temperture, there being milk to pour into your cereal, getting a few green lights on your way to work, having lunch outside with a friend, going home to your family, laughing at an inside joke... it seems like we only notice the small things when they go wrong. What if instead we could learn to be grateful for all the little things on a consistent basis. It might just make all the chaos of our lives a little less crazy, and a lot more tolerable.

Last night Bryan (@bryan44 for all your twitters) came over and watched a movie with Chris and I, and he brought over ice cream. I realize that doesn't sound like a lot, but if you knew how much Chris loves ice cream and how miserable he is when there isn't any at home, you might be able to understand how much that little act of kindness meant to him, and by association me. It's all about the little things folks, it really is.

So if you still don't get it, all I am really trying to say is if you take the time to look, you will soon realize there are no shortage of things to be grateful for, that you are blessed, and that a half a gallon of ice cream does make a difference.
