Gratitude

Things I am grateful for:

My husband who is hard-working and good to me and our children, the Gospel which brings me peace and joy, my children who are usually healthy and mostly good, good food (I always appreciate food more after fast Sunday- today), air-conditioning (which stopped working on Friday afternoon and someone is coming Tuesday to fix but this is making me appreciate it so much more), the free country in which we live, democracy, capitalism (I'll take an uneven division of wealth over an even division of misery any day), music, good friends who make me smile and make life more enjoyable, good parents who raised me well and taught me right principles that I've carried throughout my life, beautiful Colorado mountains that inspire me, people in my church that are dependable and good and always looking for ways to help, people in my community that volunteer, strangers who smile at me, neighbors who are always kind and bring us treats, siblings who call to see how I'm doing, my children's teachers who are dedicated, a garden, a healthy body, and most of all, our Saviour's atonement.
