Thankful

I’m thankful for little reminders of the blessings I have…

French fries scatted through the back seat of my car.

Crayon sketches on the backs of my dining room chairs.

Soggy Cheerios floating in warm cereal bowl milk.

Princess dress-up clothes scattered around the house.

Chalk drawings on my sidewalk and driveway.

That macaroni and cheese is a delicacy.

That bread crusts are nasty.

And the sweet call of “Mommy” both day and night, to remind me, I am the most important person in their world.
