1. The snow melting within a few hours!! Still can't believe we had snow in April, in Kelowna! It's gone now and the grass is even greener! It's funny to see the green, green grass and trees in the valleys and the white peaks--what a contrast!
2. For good health. Even though Zech has been pretty sick this weekend, once again, we are so blessed that it is just a cold and nothing more serious! (I wouldn't have said that a couple of days ago when we had ZERO hours of sleep!!
3. For the country we live in and the peace of mind knowing that we can take our kids outside and not be afraid of being bombed or shot at! Yes we LOVE Canada, but that does not mean that Canada does not have it's problems too (like the fact that even though we are Canadian citizens, we can't get medicare.....nothing more stressful than not having medicare when your child is sick and running a fever and knowing that to take him to the emergency will result in a $500 bill and to take him to the doctor is another $50 or more!! We contacted the MLA and were told that if we were immigrants or refugees we would have medical--not something we wanted or needed to hear!!!)!! Sorry I know this is about being grateful, but I have been a little sleep deprived and stressed this weekend!
4. Ron and Laura Redner!! This is the wonderful couple who has let us into their home after only meeting us twice. They are back now for a couple of weeks before they leave again and it has been a true blessing spending time with them and getting to know them!
5. For pictures of these adorable little guys!! Can't wait for the next visit in June!!
6. My sister-in-law Michelle, who was able to get me in with her hair dresser. After the week I have had trying to "fix" my hair, it will be nice to have a good hair dresser!
7. My sister and her phone calls--she thinks she calls me too much, but I always love hearing from her and hearing my nephew "coo" in the background!!
8. My wonderful husband!

What a great list! Sometimes it's hard to write, hey? But it's worth it - makes you think about the good things in life instead of the negative. I hope Zech is feeling better soon!
I like the reality that comes through on your lists! And it's so nice having a sister to chat with, especially when you both have little ones. I wish the snow would go away here :(( I'm trying to get to Airdrie so I can play with Helayna. Can we see the new hairdo? Please?!!
I hope Zech is feeling better! I love the pictures of the boys (I even had to get Cory out of bed just to see them - though he wasn't sleeping yet and he loved them too). The first picture is my favourite :) And I love your list of Zech's words too - 18.5 months wow :)
