A Joyful Moment

I am thankful:

- to be a daughter, sister, AND AUNT
- to be an American and a Southerner
- for my church
- to know many nice, interesting people who are different from me - it's good to be stretched
- for friends who gladly include me in their family and other-friend-group events
- that I'm comfortable doing things on my own, okay with my own weirdness, and rarely feel like a third or fifth wheel
- that I've never felt better physically/athletically
- that many opportunities are available to me, even if it doesn't feel that way sometimes
- for a hairdresser who's consistently trustworthy with my hair
- for my garden, which is looking amazing
- for ice cream and YoLo
- that my face didn't actually get sunburned on my jog today, I was just red from near-heatstroke
- that I live in the era of Joss Whedon (Avengers was amazing)
- that summer is unofficially here!
