thankful.

on this cold and windy January afternoon i am most thankful for...

hot chocolate

cobblestone streets
trees thrusting their bare branches heavenward
new friends
we remember by the newsboys. powerful when you stop to think about it.
long, free, across the world phone calls
puzzles
soft, sweet babies

decisions. they're hard, but admit it. without them life would be boring.
no finals. really.
books. i've been reading insanely
chocolate chips
this post.
the promise of adventure on the horizon
wool socks
grapefruit. one of the perks of winter.
the cold bright weather we've been having. until today of course.
old friends
playing violin. i pour things into that instrument. figuratively speaking of course.
names. i write out lists of them. i love finding out what they mean. what does yours mean?
candles
my happy & cozy room. it's finally gotten to the place where i feel comfortable in it.
chocolate
blackberry muffins
friends that make me laugh, unknowingly.
being caught up on school
sunsets
brothers that read
brothers that play
hope
