bits of blah and thanks

i'm woefully behind here.

so bullet style.

---> mike got home from CA rather uneventfully for which we were thankful. he's officially DONE with his MASTERS... hallelujah!

---> i went back to teaching for the semester filled with kids who don't care to practice and can't understand why they aren't learning to play the piano... oy.

---> levi has recently decided to wake up every night crying for random periods of time, as well as refuse any food we give him at a meal time. (yea, that's fun)

---> it's january. it's cold and snowy, and while i truly don't mind winter, it would be nice to have a little bit of sunshine...

and because that seems rather complainy..

---> i am extremely thankful for a warm and dry home during these cold months

---> i am so thankful that our little boy (who is about to turn 2) is just pure sunshine to my days, more often than not, and is becoming his own little person more and more every day

---> i am thankful for babysitters that levi seems excited to see each and every day

---> i am thankful for the small community in which we live, and even more thankful for the gracious librarians who let levi run around like a fool when we visit. :)
