Gratitude

February seems to be an appropriate time to share something with the friends that help me with things that I never had to do by myself.
Things like getting the windshield wipers replaced, putting a new battery in both cars, fixing flat tires, changing the oil in the John Deere and making sure it runs so I can mow my lawn and the pasture grass. And a couple of my dear friends from school that will come and get me and/or take me home when there are random transportation issues!
So while my mom was staying with me while my brother was on a trip, I mixed up my cookie dough and started baking some cookies. I'm not finished and need to bake more later this afternoon because I have been blessed by many friends.  I was thrilled to discover the cute paper plates in the Easter aisle at W-Mart. I love the pink gingham and got green plates, too.
