I’m grateful for change. The next move will make five since I was married three and a half years ago. But each move and coordinating life change had brought lots of excitement and helped me grow lots. Going cross-country will certainly bring new challenges but I’m very excited for them.

I’m grateful that I am having another baby boy. I love feeling him move inside me, and looking at tiny diapers and realizing I’m going to have another little kiddo to fit inside. Peter gets to be a big brother too, which will be lots of fun.

I’m grateful for the end of gardening season. This year has been a blast with all the projects I was able to work on. I saw a couple of my designs go in, maintained several landscapes, and was able to put lots of input into other people’s gardens. I grew a nice crop of vegetables and today discovered that blue hubbard squash makes excellent pumpkin pie.

I’m grateful for my husband and all the hard work he puts into school. Pretty stocked to have a physical therapist for a husband and graduation is only a year away.

I’m grateful for my grandparents. Living with them has been quite the fun experience and I have learned much about generosity and selflessness. (And aging. Not too excited for that.)

I’m grateful for the Gospel and the knowledge I have of the atonement. I love that I am able to learn so much of Christ in my life.

I’m grateful for Life, because it is awesome.
