I like it

I have to take a moment to send a big thank you to Miss Brittany for the beautiful scarf from Thailand! How sweet you are to think of me during your adventures abroad :) I *love* it and will send you love and light each time I wear it!  These kinds of gifts are my favorites; unique, unexpected, beautiful, comes with a story and has traveled an ocean to get to me. Me and my elephant scarf are two little happy peas in a pod;

I've said it before and I'll say it a thousand more times; I LOVE my job.  These boys (me and 9, soon to be 10 of them! our family is growing!) are so kind, patient and fun.  I laugh out loud at least 10 times a day here (the big kind of laugh out loud, not just a giggle)...what a blessing!  I'm grateful they put up with my hokey side on things like the Food For Thought board I now keep in the kitchen. They are incredibly open and I like (love) it.  Tonight we'll have a little bonding time on an adventure they voted on....a taco crawl in the Mission!  Woot! I better bring the Tums....

You know what else I love?  My readers.  I found out that several of you generously donated to two causes I've blogged about; Organ Donation and Team Tassy.  All I can say is wow--you've made me quite the grateful gal.  I'm touched and humbled by your kindness and support...thank you so, so much. There are thousands of worthy charities and causes that deserve people's attention and help out there and you stepped it up to support ones that are important to me?  Dang.  You are serious rock stars! Please feel free to contact me if you ever have a cause near and dear to your hearts; I'd love to be there for you in any way I can!  My heart is so humbled to be a part of this community of gratitude and giving we're building; sharing with you is truly the highlight of my day :)

In Gratitude,

Trish
