Unplanned Gratitude

There are many things in my life to be grateful for. Since I didn't get anything posted for Thanksgiving, I am going to post some pictures of a few of the things I am grateful for now. I have come to realize, many of the things I experience in life are unexpected. Those things I didn't plan for, but just seem to happen, often turn out to be some of life's most cherished things. Here we go............

I never knew that someone so perfect for me, was out there. Someone who loves my short fused Irish temper  "Because it shows Passion"!  And those are his words, not mine! As redundant as it sounds, Peter completes me. ( and I never can stay mad long!)

 That I would ever be a Football Mom!
Or that I would have two BFF's that call me Mom.
 That I would have a wonderful bright son like Jeff in my life.
Or when we took Cream Puff in "for a couple weeks",  it would become permanent!
 Or from dissolute, God could bring for such beauty....
 and snow can be so artistic.
 Or that I would ever reconnect with old friends from Moab, let alone go to NYC and see a Broadway Production with them!
 

Yes. Life would be so different, if I was the one who directed my course each and every day. But on the boat I call life, storms and uncharted courses often come my way. And those, I have found in the end, are some of the best things in life. Those are some of the things for which I am most grateful!
