30 Days of Gratitude--Days 27-30

Today I'm grateful for . . . surprises. (Good surprises, just to be clear). There are few things I love better than doing something fun that's completely unexpected, like a surprise visit from a friend or a just-because gift from my bestie. When people ask what I want for Christmas or my birthday, I answer, "surprises." Because that's the truth. If they continue with follow-up questions, like, "Well, what kind of surprises?" I answer, "You know what I like." ;)

Today I'm grateful for . . . words. I'm a writer. Enough said.

Today I'm grateful for . . . laughter. With so much crap in the world, laughter is the best sound. Especially a baby's laugh. I love it when they laugh so hard they squint their eyes shut and their faces turn pink.

Today I'm grateful for . . . finishing. It felt so good to finish NaNoWriMo (even though it was a bittersweet kind of good--I'm still sad it's over) and now I've finally finished my 30 days of gratitude (a day late, but better late than never, right?).

What are you grateful for? Leave a comment! :D

I love coming here, your posts are so cherry and inspiring. You and I have some of the same things on our lists, like writing and words. Without words there would be no stories.

I just published a book called I'm thankful for.." ( sorry shameless plug,lol) So lets see what am I thankful/grateful for... The many opportunity to share how God has impacted my life and the wonderful people hes put in it.

@Debi Thanks for stopping by! :D I'm glad you like my posts. I think words are so important. Without words, there not only wouldn't be any stories (like you said), but we couldn't even be talking about it right now. ;)

This is so true. We would just be looking at each other with heads turning this way and that trying to figure the other person out.
