From where you are

so basically, I am writing this because of all the little things that run through my mind that changed my life :). in the song it says, "I miss all the little things, i never thought they'd mean everything to me", and it's totally true, y'know? cuz like, when it comes down to being thankful for something... some of the things i'm most thankful are my friends, and not just that, things like, Foursqaure at OCCS. or slow computers in the computer lab. Playing soccer in the rain, or even pretending we were spies at the harringtons when i was a little girl. attempting to play baseball in the middle of the street at the trailer park with all the other little "trailer kids". I miss the time Me, Alexa, Tony, and Seamus performed the teacher song at graduation, and i would give anything to be able to do it again. i miss mr. edgar's crazy long hose on field day, and the basement at the school that has not only scared the heck out of me, but held me safe in dangerous storms. i miss the fuzzy sheep that luc was crazy about, and i miss when my eyes would water during maple syrup season cuz of the smoke when the added wood to the fire. I miss sitting in the pen with the brand new baby goat that was born a little too early and needed to be kept warm. I even miss standing inside, crying as i looked into the box that held the now dead baby goat that had been born only days before. i miss playing Slave Traders with the lindseys, and getting hay rashes afterwards cuz of the cubbie holes. I miss waking up at 5:30 in the morning to "spare and angel" by chris rice. I miss spiking out mrs. Krauss in Foursquare, and having a teacher that could just chill, and hang out with the 8th graders during spanish, or go off on random tangeants during Bible. I miss the worn down, safe, old feeling of my old houses, and trying to sew quilts together when i was four. I miss accidentally drinking sour milk, and hanging out at the harrington's house every friday and then staying overnight in the camper :p. I miss spelling bees, and i miss all the people i have met that changed my life.

My point is that it is the tiny things that in the long run, i miss the most when their gone. I am soooo thankfull for all of these things, it's not even funny.

Tomorrow is thanksgiving, and i am glad. because i have all of these things to be thankful for...
most people would say things like, "im thankful for my job" or "i'm thankful that God provided for my family this year" or "i'm thankful for my family". These are good things, and i am very thankful for them, but i think, one of the things i am most thankful for, are memories.

my top 5:
My Heavenly Father.
My amazing family.
My irriplaceably friends.
My unforgettable memories.
and so many other things i can't even come up with a 5th one.... LOL.
anyway, just, yeah, i just needed to write all this out. cuz... yeah.

peace guys.

Happy Thanksgiving. :)
