1. A complete roast beef dinner ready at home, and the awesome aroma that filled the house. I'm so glad that I had time to put it in the oven before jetting off to church this morning.
2. My mom. She (and my dad, for that matter) are such great examples of selfless service. Just this week my mom has donated blood, done a charity walk, and taught a cooking class at church.
3. A new episode of Brothers & Sisters tonight. I love Sally Field; she reminds me of my mom. Also, I want to have the house she has on the show.
4. Holding my baby boy close. I love his toothless smiles, his warmth, staring into his eyes. Falling in love with your children is the best.
5. Piper's excitement at getting to put away the clean silverware after we explained that she would get an allowance (a dime) once a week if she would do three chores. The three chores we all decided on are putting away the clean silverware, putting napkins on the table for dinner, and putting away her toys before bedtime.

I LOVE brothers and sisters, and I would also kill for nora's kitchen!
You take after your mom, Misty.
Thank you Chellese for that comment! Misty is awesome! Misty, thank you for the Sally Field comment - I think she is so cute! I will have to start watching Brothers and Sisters. I do enjoy your Gratitude blogs and it has become so contagious - thanks to Ashley for starting us! By the way, I think all my charity was done in one week! I think I am finished now (tee hee!)
Love -
Mom
You guys are too funny.
And Mom, her name is Amberly, FYI.
Oops, sorry Amberly! You have started quite the stir at our hotel - a hotel of gratitude! Love it!
