40. a soft, comfy bed with lots of blankets for the chills.
41. the children all are getting over their fevers finally.
42. piano music, (well, it's almost music!) coming down the hall.
43. our sweet neighbors, who said they'd pray for us about the showing we had Saturday (we haven't heard anything back, so we're assuming it's a no-deal, but I love that the Gargas' prayed for us!).
44. my seeds for the garden and the excitement that they bring from everyone when they arrive.
45. a home that we do love, even if we need to do a lot of work to it to make it possible for us to stay here.
So many people are losing their homes right now- we're really thankful that we have a house!
46. my Natie's job. It may require so much from all of us, but it is such a blessing that he can do what God has called him to and provide for us. Once again, so many people across the country losing jobs makes us incredibly thankful for his job also.
47. for the boy putting on his Daddy's shoes and clomping around the house, making up his own song, and then coming over to me and giving me a big, slobbery kiss.
48. for Hannah doing so well at reading and writing out words... she decided to read me some of a Little House book because I'm the sick one this time around, and she spelled out her own Valentine's cards (very well, too!). Such a big girl and so sweet!
49. for Erin offering to make the soup for dinner yesterday and meaning it.

I echo the thoughts on being thankful for our home. Having a place to live is great even though I might hope for somthing a bit larger someday.
