day 4- josie jade

on this fourth day of gratitude i am truly grateful for:

josie jade

the love i have for this cute redhead is off the charts.

she is so stinking funny yet opinionated it's not even funny!

she is 5 going on 15 and makes her presence known to all who enter our home.

outside of the house she is a quiet and shy.

inside these four wall, watch out- she runs the place!

i love that she is the spitting image of her dad, both in looks and personality.

they are two of a kind for sure.

the world is a better place because of our little red.

love you josie jade!

day 3- jessica payton

oh jp where do i start?

see this girl?

she is so a middle child.

she is a fashionista. a punk rocker.wild child, yet rule follower. she can drive you to the edge and then have you rolling on the floor laughing.

she is smart. talented. funny. artistic. organized. grumpy. bossy. beautiful. a skinny minnie. independent. loving. caring {sometimes} and is my middle child.

even when she was little she was a turkey. this child of mine cried, and cried and cried, constantly.

if she wasn't held at all time, she would CRY! ugh.. seriously thought something was wrong with the girl.

although she is quiet at times, she makes her presence known. she is a leader at school and gets straight A's.

i am curious as to what our relationship will be when she gets a little older... shall we pray? {ha}

so i love ya jessica payton, our lives wouldn't be the same without you!

day 2- jordan

for on this second day of november and in listing my 30 days of gratitude, i am thankful for jordan.

she is by far one of the most amazing young ladies i know.

i know all mom's think this way about their children, but there isn't enough space in this post for me to list all of the amazing things she is.

one could not ask for a more delightful child.

she has always been good. even as a baby. never cried, never complained. you could literally take her ANYWHERE and she was happy.

she is the same way now.

it's hard to believe in that in a short amount of time she will be 14. it seems like just a few years ago she was so little, and now she is growing up so quickly {right before my eyes}. before we know it, she'll be gone living her own life. i'm not sure i'm going to like that to be honest!

so on my second day i am ever so thankful to call jordan my eldest wonderful daughter!

day 1

so i guess it's all the rage to have 30 days of gratitude {well at least what i am hearing} so i thought i would extend this to my blog.

now, don't you just feel so darn lucky?

don't answer that, i don't want to know how you really feel about me..

okay, so on with the purpose of this post.

i think {or shall i say i will try/hope/really try/really hope} to post my 30 days worth of gratitude here on the sweet life.

so i give you day 1:

i am thankful for my awesome husband.

for he is kind, loving, caring, giving, respectful, wonderful, hard working, supportive, smart, funny, smelly, goofy, grumpy, smiley,
great, creative and all around amazing.

so very thankful for him and the life that he provides for us!
