Five things I'm grateful for today:
Labor Day Weekend
We are excited to go spend time with good friends beach camping this weekend. I don't know why the temperature dropped so suddenly but I'm sure we'll still have a good time.
Kissing my Baby
I used to be grossed out watching parents kiss their babies on the mouth. Now I can't go a day without multiple big wet kisses from Mav. I was the same way with Adelaide as a baby too. There is something about baby kisses when they are your own.
Bacon
I would say I'm 90% vegetarian, but bacon gets me every time. Yum.
Diversity of Thought
Grateful we live in a country where diversity of thought can be celebrated. As this political season heats up I'm grateful to have friends on both ends of the political spectrum who stand by their convictions. I'm grateful for the opportunity I have to study out issues and vote my conscience as well.
This Gratitude Challenge
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad today is the last day, but knowing I would write five things I'm grateful for each night helped to keep my perspective optimistic throughout the day. It's always a good exercise to count your blessings and take time to notice the small things that make life wonderful.

I'm sad it is over! I have really enjoyed reading these, and getting to read something you wrote every day! This is actually how I have done my journaling for the past few months, but I do it in a little diary. My rule is supposed to be scriptures and my gratitude journal during breakfast, and no internet until those two things are done! :)
