Five Things I'm Thankful For Today...

....Starbucks Double Chocolate-Chip Frappuccinos.

....True crime television shows.

....A washer and dryer in my home. (I remember having to go to the laundromat!)

....Dooce.

....People with Midwestern accents. (You betcha!)

What I've Noticed About My Daughter

She's very tall. She has now surpassed me in height and it kind of freaks me out.

She hates injustice.

She NEVER hangs up her towels.

She loves stories.

She thinks I'm nuts.

She's someone that you think isn't paying much attention, but then later, you learn that she was TOTALLY paying attention.

She surprises me with her music choices. In a matter of three months a while back she went from Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift to Muse and Skillet. Not sure how I feel about that...

She does not care if her clothes are wrinkled. I know EXACTLY how I feel about that.

She loves to play Slug Bug. (My arms have bruises.)

She's funny. A very dry sense of humor.

She's argumentative. Drives me crazy sometimes.

She has good instincts. She always has.

She knows her own limits. She always has.

She sleeps a lot.

She's very brave. So very brave. Braver than I ever was as a kid and it truly amazes me.

I love her.
