276. Today I am grateful to be an auntie

I love being an auntie! My nieces and nephew are so cute and so much fun to be with. I am grateful for the time I have to spend with them; I only wish I could live closer to them. Even though distance separates us I am grateful for the influence I have on them. I am also grateful that they know how much I love them and that I know how much they love me.  

275. Today I am grateful for a new family photo ... with everyone!

It has been two years since we had a family photo and it was nice to get a new one to add to the 2012 family scrapbook page. I am grateful for a friend who took time to take some photos for us. The photo shows everyone but in reality my brother did not get the memo that we were getting family photos taken and was not there. I am also grateful for Photoshop so that he could be included in the photo. J
