I wrote a Gratituesday post which you can read over on my non-digi blog at www.bellajoy.com if you are interested.  I’m definitely feeling in a thankful mood today, after the events of the last two days.  Taking your child to the ER and having everything turn out to be fine definitely helps make a gal feel grateful. 

A couple of things to add to the list…

I’m thankful for the comments, emails and prayers offered up by those of you who visited my blog yesterday.  It’s one of THE best advantages of having a blog – the sense of community and friendship that builds, and just knowing that there are people who care and have concern. 

I sat in the hospital yesterday taking notes about a few things, because I wanted to be able to remember the details of the day after it was over.   I’m thankful to have a place to come and share those details.  I chuckled a little, because a few incidents were definitely “blogable”.  It’s a fun and interesting twist in life to be going through an experience and sense the blog-worthiness of the event.  My husband rolls his eyes at me occasionally, but he WAS the one taking pictures of lil Allan in the ambulance. 

So, yesterday before I wrote about the ER visit, I wrote a post with a challenge about journaling and scrappin’ the every day “stuff”.  Did you write in your journal yesterday?  Did you do a layout about an every day experience?  And what are YOU thankful for today?  Is there something you can preserve in writing or in a layout that shows how thankful you are?  Feel free to post here in my comments, or write your own blog post and link us up over at Laura’s blog at HeavenlyHomemakers.com

If lil Allan will let me hang out in my office today and I can get the time to scrap, I’ll be back later with a layout or two to share. If not, I’ll just be thankful that my son loves me so much he can’t stand for me to be away from his side. <grin>
