Thankful

[eleneariel]

I do this every year, half my flist does a form of this, and yet -- much as I like to be different, I keep on. It's important. Someday I want to look back and see how my lists change year after year.

There never stop being things to be thankful for.

  (ARE there really any 'small' blessings?)

sunshine
my church family
dirt
grace
crazy brothers
a non-normal family
tea
Mr. Boggs
friendship
the ability to improve
prisms
rarely being bored
smiles
salvation
babies
little things 
days off of work
happy faces
photographs
growing things
cheese
airplanes
Hagen 
the library and my work there
bells
joy
books and the reading thereof
where God has led my life
eyes
BBC
the color red
sunsets
the HH years
italics
travel
clouds

And at the end, but surely much higher in importance...I could list you each by name and it would be true, for each of you have been a blessing and an encouragement. But I must recognize a few special ones:
