I have to write about how much gratitude I feel for my sister, Heidi. She posted a blog a couple weeks ago about abundance. It has had such a great impact on me. It says that you don't need to own anything anything to feel abundant. There are so many ways to notice abundance in our lives, and I've become aware of so many in my own life. It is such a great energy to witness abundance in the moment. These are some of the things I've noticed in my own life.
Laughing with my sisters (chips & salsa?)
Chatting daily with friends over the phone
Watching my boys put their arms around each other
Talking to my parents over my web cam
Knowing there are so many people out there that really are kind, and care about me
Making my nephew laugh
Being amazed at what a wonderful artist my daughter has become
Having the opportunity to attend church, and get there in less than five minutes
Eating good food with good friends
Being blessed with a husband that makes me feel beautiful and safe
Getting to know people and being able to share things like this through blogging
I'm sure I could go on and on. I hope we can all realize the abundance we are blessed with, it is an amazing gift.

You are such a REAL person, and I love getting to know you better. I truly admire your outlook on so many things. Thank you for writing it...and remember to let us all know if you need any help with moving. (seriously!!) Also...I know there is some joke about the chips and salsa, but that sounds SO good to me right now. I think that is my favorite thing to eat. :o)

Gabriel is Sarahs baby...she is a little nervous about sharing too much info on the internet so I tried to keep it low profile...he is adorable!
You are awesome. Thanks for being such a good friend! (seriously my verify word is: lampy - I think that is going to be my new word of the day...."Man, she sure was lampy!")
