*that my family members are all safe after hurricane Harvey and the resulting floods
*for friends that I can laugh and cry with - sometimes both at the same time
*for technology that lets me connect with my children with just a few taps on my screen

*for students that follow directions the first time, and with a good attitude
*for a husband who is able to come and eat lunch with me most days
*for safety as we traveled to and from volleyball games this week
*for a precious lady who is willing to step in and be an adopted grandma for the Youngest Princess on Grandparent's day
*for good health
*for a text from a concerned co-worker
*that my husband safely pulled over and got out of the car before the wasp on his shoulder stung either him or me
*for a text from a concerned family member
*for a comfortable bed at the end of a long day
