- My loving husband
- the wonderful connection we have
- A wonderful and truly amazing son
- A growing pregnant belly
- "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb" vs.13 and the rest of Psalm 139
- Outstanding parents - the best
- The best siblings and extended family
- My Mom for (of many reasons)being an example of natural childbirth (30 something hour labor with me I want to say!)
- A terrific Mother-in-law
- 2 handsome nephews and a beautiful niece
- Our health
- Smiles
- The best friends
- That God always provides
- 2 crazy dogs to teach me patience
- Girl scout cookies ;)
- A wonderful church family
- Tulips piercing the earth
- Eyes to read and learn
- Ears to hear the best laugh ever
- Spinach and lettuce coming up in the garden
- That I get to stay home with my son- as he says "Daddy go work and Mommy stay home play!"
- To be a sinner saved by God's grace
- A son who sleeps through the night
- The drive to become the best mom and wife I can be
- My blogging friends :)
- A beautiful home
- Mexican food ;)
- To be living in the US
- Running water and a multitude of appliances (I can't imaging being without these luxuries especially while pregnant!)

- A joyous life!!!!!!! (Yes, we have our moments too but I love how wonderful it really is!)
