Happy Thanksgiving!

This Thanksgiving, our family has so much to be thankful for – so many BIG things! But, I feel like, this is the perfect time to sit back and be thankful for all the little things too, like:
Holding hands with Derrick
Sleeping more than 4 hours in a row
Braelynn catching your eye & giving you a huge smile
Abby putting her head on your lap
Braelynn reaching for you
Derrick’s singing
A hot shower
Random texts from friends
Laughing until you cry around the table with your family
Braiding Ruby’s hair
Braelynn resting her head on your shoulder
Snuggling with Derrick while watching a movie
30-second “therapy” hugs
Fresh apple pie
Braelynn taking a good nap
Watching a bride & groom’s first kiss thru the lens of a camera
Soft warm clean sheets
Texting my sisters funny photos
Long walks in the summer
Deep Creek Lake
Sweatpants & well worn hoodies
Playing the piano
Conversations with my Mom
Fresh pancakes
Braelynn’s fuzzy hair sticking up in all directions
Lunch with Grandparents
Birthdays
Waking up to Braelynn’s smiling face every morning
Kissing Derrick goodnight every night
So, consider this my challenge to you: don’t just be thankful for the big things today, think about all the little things too!
