Kissable baby feet
The smell of my baby's sweet breath while she lays on my shoulder
The contagious laugh of my 2 year old
That my 5 yo tries to break dance
And that we all find it so funny we laugh so hard we cry
That my 7 yo got to see puppies be born, even though she gagged
My 8 yo loves to sing, and brings me to tears every time I hear her
That after a 14 month fight, we finally were awarded full guardianship of our 15 year old "daughter"
And that because she's finally home, loved, secure, and happy, she hasn't cut herself in months, and never feels suicidal anymore
That my husband still desires me and calls me beautiful even when I have spit up on my shoulder, boogers on my hip, a breast milk saturated bra, and maternity undies on.
A 4 slice toaster, because I can never just make a piece of toast for myself
For my Keurig, because nothing says relief like a hot cup of coffee/tea freshly brewed
The freedom to homeschool my children and great living books to read when we snuggle together
For a roof over my head, and a beautiful one at that
For a wonderful Mother and Father who raised the 8 of us to want to model them
That my sisters are more then sisters, they are my best friends
For 3 sets of grandparents that adore our children
And a Savior who cared enough to give all of this to me
