Reality Check

Things I love about our life:

1. Eric's brothers and their wives. I think we were all meant to be family.
2. Our jobs. We both like getting up and going to work everyday. I would do my job for free if it werent for this pesky adoption financing thing.
3. Bailey. He makes me smile and thinks I am GREAT!
4. There is no one else in the whole universe that I would rather be with. Eric is simply THE best.
5. I love that we didnt get pregnant the first month we tried. Our struggle (i need to find a better word for it) has relly brought us closer and stronger.
6. Our church. I just feel better about life after hearing Pastor Brad.
7. Our neighbors. I find it hard to describe them to people because I want to say "my neighbors", but that description doesnt even come close. They are much more than that. We love them dearly and appreciate their friendship sooo much.
8. Nights like last night and weekends like last weekend. Relaxing with each other, relaxing with friends and a good bottle(s) of wine. What is better?
9. Eric's mom and stepdad. I used to get weird about their visits, but now I LOVE when they come to visit. Looking forward to our P-cola trip next month. (I think I was copying my mom's attitude towards HER in-laws....eww.)
10. My Brett Dennon CD. I heart him. A lot.
11. Catching up with high school friends, thanks to the evil-ness of Facebook. Loved chatting with JaImIe and remembering "back in the day"...even if it did make me feel OLD.
12. My cell phone. I have bitched and complained about my cell phone since about 4 months after I got it. Next month, I get $200 towards a new phone, and I cant seem to part with this one. It grew on me. I love it.:)

What a great idea for a post. Seems like sometimes we all take the simpliest things for granted. Sounds like you are surrounded by people that love you!

I love thinking about the things that are great in life. :) I have to stop and do that every now and then or I get bogged down by all the crud. So glad there are so many great things in your life! Love you, hun!
