shoutout to One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp.

"Therefore I will give thanks to You among the nations, O Lord, and I will sing praises to Your name." Psalm 18:49 (NASB).

1000 gifts:

1) a cuddly puppy keeping my left leg warm.

2) an awesome brother willing to humiliate himself so I can pass a class.

3) green grass everywhere!

4) the small joy of knocking out each class one by one on finals week.

5) green leaves!

6) the moments of sunshine worth running out onto the deck to enjoy.

7) a job with security.

8) an overworked, stressed, dedicated mother who still loves us when we demand yet another thing from her.

9) the bumpy adidas slides that massage my feet after working all day.

10) big fluffy dinner rolls. the buttery kind.

 and to add:

11) the refreshing cool front after weeks of stifling humidity and sharing a fleece blanket with my puppy.

12) little 100 calorie pop-tarts and good, strong coffee.
