My daily gratitude for:

1. An upcoming three day weekend that is beyond needed!
2. Other parents of toddlers who give you the nod and affirming empathetic eyes as we both deal with toddlers being toddlers (a la dinner group last night with two other toddlers who had reached the end of their night and mine who was screaming because he couldn’t walk into the busy street that sits right off a freeway).  I love my fellow compassionate parents!
3. Ryan sleeping in, which doesn’t do anymore but when he does I am very appreciative!
4. A welcome beautiful sunny morning!  I need the lift of a warm sun in place of the dark rain clouds of the past couple days.
