I have really been just feeling so lucky and blessed to have so many wonderful neighbors, freinds, family members etc.. and so I have decided I am going to list some every couple of days and list some of the reasons I am thankful for them. They are in no particular order, some I have know forever and some I just met.
My neighbor Angie, We just had a midnight Jam session. We made strawberry freezer jelly together and talked and laughed for hours. Angie is sooo amazing for a lot of reasons: she gets stuff done, she is the best multi tasker. She runs 3 miles in like 21 minutes basically she runs like it is nobody's business! She has 5 adorable children and she is a great mother. She is very thoughtful. She knows a lot of big words and is really super smart.
My step mother, Leiloni Alexander Taylor, She is an incredibly resiliant woman. She is always happy. She has a lot of class and a really great sense of humor. She loves her son feircly. She is always looking on the bright side. She has a smile on her voice, like she just sounds happy.
My new freind Tammy Shumway. She is very honest. She is gorgeous, but does not act like it. She speaks her mind. She is a very talented writter. She has the most beautiful, elegant body- like a ballerina body. She is daring. She just started running and totally kicks "A"
My son Taylor, He is just a sweet person. He cares about everyone, even bugs and he apologizes to the couch if he runs in to it. He loves to laugh. He is super duper coordinated. He has his daddy's amazing legs. He tries hard at everything he does. He always tells me I am cute, well "tute" He is so loving to his brothers. He has the most amazing blue eyes.
My mom, Kristi. She is very determined. She does and says the funniest things. When she is mad, she will have these intense conversations in her head and you can almost hear them by her facial expressions, she has amazing wiggly eyebrows. She is super smart! She thinks she has the most beautiful feet. she is my favorite cook. She is very forgiving. She does not give up. She taught me how to pray.
My freind Joanie Shaffer. she is buckets of fun. She includes everybody. She is very accepting. She does not try to put on a show for anyone. She is willing to help anybody. She is faithful. She is a great mom.
My freind Amy Jones. SHe is just so darn likeable. She is not judgmental. SHe is very real. She is really smart and has a big vocabulary. She is my library. SHe is so fun to talk to. She has amazing curly hair. She is soo crafty!
My nephew Hayden. He says the darndest things. He is really smart. He has beautiful melt your heart big brown eyes. He kicks trash at most video games. He is really fun to talk to. He loves his family.

For real, Food for thought? I know Amy is going to come back and see it's derived from when eating we chew and chew on food and it's time consuming and yada yada, which Amy I love don't get me wrong I love that we can aount on an explanation but some of them are just down right funny!
How do ya like them apples?
Okay moving on. I love hearing about all the wonderful peoples in your life and how thankful you are to be surrounded by them, the Lord really knows who we need and how each holds a different job in a friendship. NOw that that has been said why the heck am I not on there for being the funniest friend and best message leaver so you can be all popular and stuffs??? ;0)
Dang that was like a Novel!
Why are you up so late anyway!
Rochelle is such a stalker.... LOL!Loved this post! Ditto on all of the people that I know! ...and I love that your little boy is so polite he apologizes to the couch when he runs into it! So cute!
I was smiling reading all of those. You are such a thoughtful person, you really are thinking of things like that all of the time. You're such a shweetie! I love ya girl!
I agree with Ter...you really are such an amazingly thoughtful person. You just make me want to be a better person all the time. Thanks for being you. You make my life a lot brighter! I'm thankful for you, too. Love ya!
Today's idiom lesson really is food for thought! (We are metaphorically digesting information in our brains, or mulling it over in our minds.) I didn't necessarily mean to "bite off more than I could chew" when I began explaining these idioms, but as they say...they "broke the mold" when I came along. So I'll continue to "burn the midnight oil" so I can help unravel the unknown...and I'll try to do it "just in the nick of time". But don't get your "knickers in a twist" if you don't hear from me for a couple days. If given the opportunity to "hit the hay", I might just have to take it. I won't "beat around the bush" here...I'm tired. Newborns and sleep deprivation are not "my cup of tea"!
My novel rivals Rochelle's. High Five!

Thank you for the things you said. I love reading your blog and getting to know you better. I love seeing this side of you. You are funny, unpredictable, thoughtful, kind and a great example to everyone you meet.
What you said made me teary eyed! Thanks for including me! I was surprised. You are so thoughtful and everyone who knows you is lucky and better because of it.
Okay Amy just kicked my fanny here. It's war sister!
