Start#1: Gifts 203...

203. An amazing husband who, despite his demanding schedule, helps in the morning to get us all out the door, helps at night to get us all fed, and still, when he sees me at work on the computer after the girls are asleep asks, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

204. Mindy's quotes of the day, always keeping me inspired and thinking positively.

205. Having extra help at work. It took my office partner going on vacation this week and me, in her absence, doing the things I used to do that she now does to truly realize how lucky we are to have her, her morning cheer, and the other amazing women we now have on our team.

206. Finally getting a nagging home repair done today that will hopefully save us money on our water bill, and will help me not feel so guilty about wasting this precious resource.

207. Coupons that saved me over $5 at the grocery store tonight.

208. New recipe that I'm excited to try tomorrow for lunches: Warm Lentil Salad with Sausage and Apple

209. Walking into the house tonight to see Lily in her purple and black dress with the silver sequins and Emmy in her lavender ballerina tutu leotard twirling together to a waltz in the living room.

210. Reading "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" on the couch, Lily on one side of me, Emmy on the other, and how excited I am that we have nearly a month longer to enjoy these holiday stories.

211. Andy stopping me in the hallway tonight for a long, warm embrace.
