So very grateful for books! I love to read and I am grateful that I have that ability. If you know me at all you should know how very much I love books.

I am grateful for the prophet President Monson. The other day I watched a talk from Pres Monson on the internet and he mentioned how many years he has been serving in the church. It is amazing to me how selfless he is! I am also grateful for all of the other church leaders, inlcuding the local leaders. Their service often goes unappreciated but is so valuable.

I am so grateful for my wonderful neighbors! We are lucky to live in a great close knit area where we have many friends who are so kind. It's nice to know who my neighbors are and to actually care about them.

I am also very grateful that one of my closest neighbors is my brother and his family. They have helped us out more times than I can count. We love having them close so that I can spoil Peyton and Jackson.

Yesterday Matt helped me out with a car battery issue while Steve was headed out of town. Thank you Matt for getting greasy and cold just to help out your big sis!

I am so grateful to all of the men and women who have valiantly served our country with their military service. We are blessed to have so many wonderful freedoms here in America.

I love the quote, "Home of the free, because of the brave!"

Thank you to all of the veterans who have sacrificed so much for us.

Day 10

Today I am grateful for good health. This year we started getting colds/flu/ear infections/croup back in August and I have had to take a lot of sick days. BUT thankfully we haven't come across anything too serious. We are all pretty healthy and I am glad we don't have any serious health challenges to face everyday!

Day 9

I am grateful today for a job that allows me to be able to take time off to stay home with my sick babies. I am especially grateful that both Steve and I have great jobs in this terrible economy. We may not be rich but we can support our family!

Day 8

I am so grateful for wonderful childcare providers. It seems like we have been blessed with the most amazing babysitters for all of our kids. They have loved my children like their own and my kids love being there. We have had to change sitters in the past and amazingly we are always able to find someone else who is just as great!

I am also grateful for amazing schools that Koby and Morgan attend. They are both so smart and have had wonderful teachers through out the years.
