Today I'm thankful for:
- bananas--we made 3 loaves and one bundt pan of banana, oat, flax bread this morning
- piano lessons--my children have been serenading me all day with lovely music
- highly energetic five-year-olds--I've burned at least a thousand extra calories today chasing one out of my living room over and over again
- Ruth--for our shared love of food and the delicious sounding Puerto Rican recipe for Arroz con Gandules she gave me and which we're trying this evening
- Scythian--whose happy energetic Irish music helps me keep up with the five-year-old
- free-range chickens--whose fresh eggs helped out the bananas this morning
- teen-age daughters--whose proficiency in the kitchen frees me up to fill the emotional tank of the highly energetic five-year-old
- wonderful children's authors--whose delightful stories make for much fun and enjoyment when it comes to filling the emotional tank of the highly energetic five-year-old
- the much needed survival mechanism God gave me of being able to tune out the cries of a highly energetic five-year-old who desperately wants a piece of chocolate
- my sense of humor, which Fr. Canice warned us during our Nuptial Mass would be absolutely necessary to surviving the next 70 years
