1. My dear friend asked me to be at her house at 9:30 this morning. She didn't tell me why. If she would have, I certainly would have tried to stop her. She dropped me off at a fantastic spa for a massage and took me to lunch.
2. When leaving my parent's house after a nasty snow storm I went out to my car. My step-dad had been there first. He scraped it and warmed it up for me. This is my least favorite chore. I felt very grateful.
3. Logan's first real smile was on Mother's Day.
4. Once when I was out of the house for the day (and very pregnant), Topher cleaned the whole house (oven, microwave, did all laundry, scrubbed showers, etc.) and made dinner.
5. When I was six I got an electric keyboard.
6. The Christmas after my dad died, someone left a little Christmas Mouse on our front porch with $100 in it. My mom gave my brother and I each $20.
7. My friend made us a hand crafted Settlers of Catan game. Any Settlers fans out there? You've GOT to see this!
8. On my 26th birthday my sister-in-law wrote a list of reasons why she loved me.
9. My mom has spent her whole life sacrificing for me.
10. This one is under the tree. I'm reserving a slot for it. I think it is going to be fantastic. I'll be posting about it if it is everything I hope it to be.

I remember the keyboard!! The demo song was "Just the Way you Are!!"
What a cool list of gifts! Thanks for sharing.
Once a little girl at school gave me her favorite little animal and her baptism picture maker. She wrapped it in a hand drawn paper bag wrapped box that must have taken he hours. I love the gifts and notes I got from you as you were growing up. I loved getting you and your brother, what a special gift. Wow! Thankd for the notes. I've saved them all, except the dust mite one.
i'm honored to have made the list.
you'll have to tell me what this year's gift under the tree was.
Hope you had a great time at the beach! Thanks for the call a few weeks ago. I love it that when we talk, it seems like we are back in #214 and nothing has changeg :) Love you Lis!
