Grateful

I don't need to wait until November to write a post about the things that I am thankful. I am feeling very grateful right now, I feel the need to record those moments, those feelings, those thoughts running through my head so I can freeze this moment in time.

Feeling very thankful...

for feeling energetic and optimistic

for summer festivals

for heavenly places like Hocking Hills

for waterfalls

for summer picnics

for children's laughs filling my day

for books waiting for me to open them

for my students whose bright minds inspire me every day

for the ceiling fan in my bedroom :)

for my little basil plant blooming in my apartment

for being able to spend so much time being active

for file folders that organizes my school life beautifully

for water that kept me hydrated all day long

for beautiful singing voices like Regina Spektor

for sand filling my shoes after hiking

for black and white photographs

for vibrant Costa Rican coffee in the mornings

for an early car drive

for a quiet prayer

for friends who are willing to be silly with you.

for tired legs that remind me how much fun I had today...
