Folding Clothes

Now most people don't love folding clothes and I can't say that I do either.  This morning though, I was folding my daughters clothes and was reminded of three things that I am thankful for.  I was reminded that these clothes that I am folding are ones that I didn't have to purchase.  Thanks to a wonderful family member we get all the hand-me-downs in clothes.  And thanks to her family all of the clothes we get are top notch.  My daughter is dressed to the nines all the time and I am thankful that there are family members who are generous.  Not only am I thankful for the clothes, but I was reminded that there were little people who wore those clothes.  Today I'm also thankful for my nieces.  They are wonderful little people, full of energy and a uniqueness all their own.  It's been really cool to watch them grow up even if there is a great distance between us.  Finally, I'm thankful for the little person who gets to wear these clothes.  My daughter is a great addition to our family.  We love her silly little laugh and her serious looks.  I only hope that as she grows into her personality and her new clothes that we raise her the right way.

Today I'm thankful for: super nice hand me down clothes, my nieces and my daughter Millie.
