A Prompt from the Past

I'd like to respond to Judith's prompt from forever ago.

What I'm enjoying about my life right now:

I'm enjoying working and going to school. It's nice not having to do just one or the other, but interspersing the two. I love my job. I'm a nanny to a 17 month old boy who I've watched for 14 months. He's getting to a fun age where he's starting to talk and interact with me. He loves going to the library and playing outside. And I love spending time with him. He cuddles in my lap and rests his head on my shoulder when I read to him. He's my surrogate child until I can have one of my own. :-)

I'm enjoying spending time with my husband before we start having kids. I'm enjoying sleeping in with him on Saturday mornings, taking off whenever we want to, and spending evenings lazing around together. I'm enjoying our cute little apartment and our cute little kitten. Sometimes she drives me crazy with all her jumping around and biting and scratching, but she won't be a kitten for long, and I'm loving her antics right now.

I'm enjoying my family. I have three siblings and we've all grown up enough that we finally love and appreciate each other. I'm enjoying living half a mile down the road from my sister. I'm enjoying spending Sunday afternoons after church at my parents' house, and holidays with the whole family gathered around the table, holding hands and holding back tears as my dad prays blessings over our family.

Thanks, Judith, for making me stop and take stock of my great life instead of always looking ahead to what's coming next!
