Daily Tip:
you are mediumorchid #BA55D3 | Your dominant hues are red and blue. You're confident and like showing people new ideas. You play well with others and can be very influential if you want to be.
Your saturation level is medium - You're not the most decisive go-getter, but you can get a job done when it's required of you. You probably don't think the world can change for you and don't want to spend too much effort trying to force it.
Your outlook on life is brighter than most people's. You like the idea of influencing things for the better and find hope in situations where others might give up. You're not exactly a bouncy sunshine but things in your world generally look up.

| Gratitude |
| 08.20.04 (12:21 pm) [edit] |
Today I am thankful for:
1. The fun we all had yesterday at the Penny carnival. The city I live in is wonderful at putting on free activities for the families that live here. A park near our home had a huge penny carnival yesterday with picnic and prizes all included.
The weather was perfect for a pregnant woman - warm but cloudy and overcast. It took Abigail a while to get used to all the noise and chaos at the carnival but once my little two year old worked out that if she played the games she won candy, she soon started to join in with vigour!
There were three legged races and sack races, face painting and bouncy castles, bowling and magnetic fishing games, crafts and snacks. The two hours of the carnival flew past and by the time we had walked home - stopping off for a photo session by the pond - we were all exhausted from the fun!
2. The wonderful gifts Lloyd brought me home on Monday. He finally found me a Kelloggs pedometer in a cereal box when he was at the grocery store - so he grabbed it for me :) And despite not being able to find apint glass anywhere, he found me the nicest water jug and glass set to go beside my bed. I drink so much water at night that I normally have to go downstairs and refill it several times, but this jug means I can just pour myself another glass. I am grateful for such a thoughtful husband.
3. I am grateful for the evenings this week that we have spent sat out on the patio with the firebowl lit. We sit and watch the embers glowing and the flames dancing as we chat about this and that.
4. I am really really grateful for the great indoor runners I got for the children for school - brilliant prices and the ones they chose themselves were much cheaper than I had budgeted for! I love that my children don't care for labels etc. Less than two weeks now before they go back to school. I survived!! Despite being pregnant, sick and very tired! :)
5. My love of reading. I love to read and I am grateful that I inherited my Moms love of books. That I can escape into the pages of a wonderful novel. That I read well. that I have passed my love of reading on to all 4 of my children. That we all enjoy our trips to the library. For my library card that alllows us to borrow as many books as we like. My friend is not a reader and last week I took her to the library - she had not stepped foot into a library for ten years!! I just can't imagine that! It is our second home!
