thankful.

When I became a mother, I became so much more aware of just how thankful I am for the gifts that surround me on a daily basis. Today, I am thankful for how content Anna is when we drag her around on all of our errands. We had to stop at Dan's work (twice), we went to BJ's and a few other stores, and the entire time she was just as content as can be. I am particularly thankful for this because when she was an infant, simply putting her in the car seat was a huge ordeal...(this counts as one thing I don't miss.) I worry that she will get antsy or frustrated, but Anna is content to sit in her seat and chew on her blankie. We are blessed.

Also, she is doing well at nighttime. Wakes up occasionally, but goes back to sleep easily for the most part. She loves chicken and sweet potatoes. Who would've thought my daughter would like chicken? :)

Now, we sit and wait for the "Winter Storm" to arrive as visions of Sugarplums dance in our heads...

Happy Saturday.
