Wow.. It has been a long time since I have written a gratitude list! So hopefully I can write lots.
I am grateful to my Heavenly Father that:
-I am HOME! My Daddy came and got me and Debbie and all of my stuff and brought us home to Grand Rapids. The roads were great and we had some good talks on the way up.
-I got to eat delicious food - always good.
-I survived my shift at the library this morning.
-I have money.. I just deposited a bunch of checks and that was a good feeling. lol.
-I am grateful that I am caught up with my tithing. Well, I was until yesterday, but it will be easy to do.
-I got really cool gifts tonight - Lime Green pajama pants with Cherries on them that Lisa's mom made, some awesome slippers that Lisa picked out, and a headset to talk on skype with from Collin. Good thing I didn't buy one because I almost did!
-I got so spend time with my family. I really missed them.
-We have a tradition of reading the Christmas story from the Bible. This year (and I think he has done it the last couple of years too) my Daddy read a combination, switching back and forth from the Bible to the Book of Mormon. That was neat. It's a good tradition that I want to have with my own family.
-I got to go to La Mexicana today with Nick. We spoke in Spanish almost the whole time and ate yummy food. It was really nice to catch up. And he got to meet Debbie and Sam, well, actually talk to them anyways.
-I have been able to hang out with my friends during all of break. Just in the past week I have seen Justin, Brian, Annalaura, Caity, Rudi, Kari, Mary, and Nick. I am so glad that I have had great opportunities to see my friends before I leave! That means a lot to me.
-I was able to finish packing!!!! Now that is an achievement I have been working on forever. I am so glad to finally have sorted all of my stuff out.
To be continued.. I've got to go. I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!!!!
Love,
Stephi
