Fall, how do I love you? Let me count the ways...
Um, I know I might be a teensy bit annoying with the whole fall thing, but really, people, look around. You might not be lucky enough to live here, where the beauty of fall is literally staggering, but it's a great time of year. Reflective, cosy, turning inward, waiting for winter, gathering family....all the things that happen during fall.
So, as I sit here this afternoon, drinking my coffee, eating my homemade Raspberry Breakfast Bar (her photos are SOOOO much better than mine!) and listening to the boys playing upstairs and rain drumming on my windows, I realize that I have a lot to be thankful for. Fall reminds me of what I know in my heart all year long. As such, I'm going to commit to a quick post every day in the month of November, to let all of you know what I'm thankful for. Some things big, some things little. I'll start now. (today, I have a few things. Call me an "over-thanker". Go for it. I don't care.)
I'm thankful for the heated seats in my car. Who doesn't love a warm tushie?
For a healthy, almost whole baby girl, and the big brothers who adore her.
I'm thankful for a husband who loves me more than I probably deserve, and who works at home, therefore being able to say "Honey, go to the grocery store by yourself. I'll keep all three kids here with me. And why don't you stop by the fabric store on your way? I'm sure there are a few things you could pick up to add to your stash. Take your time!"
Um, wait. Okay, you got me. The part about the fabric store I might have made up. But it was nice, and if I hauled you know what through the grocery store to steal a little time at the fabric store, no harm no foul, no? And I'm sure if he'd thought of it....
I'm also thankful to live here....here's a few reasons why!
