- A family that loves to be together
- Numerous houses and homes where we can congregate (I mean, we live all over the place)
- Family members that open up their homes to all of us
- My grandma Loretta's yams (Oh. My. Gosh.)
- Pets, that remind us to take care of something all the time
- Asa, who reminds us of what's most important in life
- Siblings who are not afraid to slap me when I say something remarkably stupid (or just stupid)
- Three beautiful sisters
- An extremely handsome identical twin brother (is that self-serving?? ;-) )
- A father who's a doctor
- All of us being in good health (these two don't really go together...)
- Financial means to attend school
- Understanding and approachable professors (SO important)
- Tallahassee Singles' Ward and Institute
- All of my friends in Tally (including a new best one)
- The many talents I enjoy
- The many NON talents that remind me what humility is
- The love and support of friends far away
- Contacts. Because I hate wearing glasses.
- My trooper of a Civic, Cindy, who has put up with me from coast to coast and 12k feet to sea level
- The situations I've been in that have required me/given me the chance to travel to so many different places
- The many life experiences I've been blessed to have
- Facebook. Just think about it.
- The love my parents have for each other and their family
- The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the community it entails
- The Book of Mormon - it is an anchor to my soul and the foundation of my testimony
- The Gift of the Holy Ghost, which has saved me on numerous occasions and giving me so much direction in life
- The love of God, without which I would not be here (not to be melodramatic...)
I had to stop a bit before I thought I would, because I could feel the beginnings of emotion coming on (you know, those emotions). I'm just so thankful for all the blessings that I have and have had - they've all led me to where I am today. :-)
Update: FSU beating UF soundly. Life is good.
