Grateful Monday

Five things I'm grateful for today:

• We had a lovely family reunion on Saturday.  It went much too fast, but I'm happy I was able to spend some time with people who I haven't seen in a long time.
• Chocolate covered pretzels.  Yum!
• Liam has learned the word "no", but has yet to really use it in a defiant way.  I know that my days are numbered with this one.....
• I ran six miles yesterday in 54 minutes.  That's a 9 minute mile!  I completely surprised myself, and I'm thrilled.
• My first week of work was excellent.  I really love being back on a college campus.  It's such a nice, inspiring environment.
