  1. Love #78. My daughter teaches nursery school. When her husband comes to meet her for lunch, some of the children yell "Miss Joy, your daddy's here!" :)

  2. Miss Big Leah, number 78 just cracks me up. :) Preschoolers are such a fun lot to be around. While I was going through college for el ed, I worked at the university day care. It was an enjoyable experience filled with lots of laughter.

    Thanks for your visit to Sugar Tails. Giving thanks with you!

  3. Love your list. Especially number 78. "Then what are you?" This is an amazing list full of blessings.

  4. I loved your list. Really. The one with your grandparents made me tear up? Marriage like that takes work. Hard work. And then it's beautiful.

    Have a wonderful week!

    (and thank you for your kind comment)
