Blessings

• One fun year with Alexander, it's flown by and I can't wait to see what the next year brings
• My clean house, it's so nice when people come to visit because I get myself together and make everything pretty (special thanks to Francois for cleaning the microwave, a chore I really dislike)
  
• Good friends and family who do nice things for me and love me and forgive my failings
• Chocolate cake, which I got to eat twice this week (and there is more leftover for another day)!
• Naps on a Sunday afternoon
• Laughter and birthday parties
• Papa Murphy's pizza, yes you have to bake it yourself, but it's sooo yummy
• Ducks, trucks, books, cars, and tools (these would have come in handy this week when I was installing cabinet locks, and Xander wanted to help) for my sweet boy to play with
• Hello Cupcake, the cutest cupbake book ever!
• Roses from my hubby, these are rare and very treasured
• My cute, cute new red jacket from my cute, cute sister Christina
