I've been........

.......tagged...by Carol over at....Scrapes and Pieces of Our Lives....
Now i'm suppose to write 7 things that are amazing about me....
ME?!!....there's nothing amazing about me....but, here are a few things that amaze me.....
1. Gods creations......look around ..... look at all the tiny, minuet living-breathing things........those are amazing!
2. The changing of the seasons......how do the plants know when to poke their heads up out of the ground and begin Spring.........how do they know when the temps and sun are just right to start budding and produce fruit, for Summer....how do they know when to stop growing and wilt away for Fall.....how do they know when to begin the Winter sleep......that amazing!
3. How did City Boy and i raise 2 very mature responsible children...that's amazing!
4. The way in which God guided Mom and i to the Twelve Area woods that we now live on and gave us the courage to make the biggest change in our lives.....with so much ease....that's amazing!
5. The fact that i've never lost the need to keep learning new "stuff".....i'm always researching things on the Internet..... last year it was Hummingbirds, waterfalls and Native American Trail Trees......this year ....so far....Underground Railroads and the Native American Legends of the "Little People"...... that's amazing!
6. The unproven fact that animals talk......MINE DO!.....Mia and Max can say more with their eyes than most politicians say in a 2 day filibuster...or six months on the campaign trail!.......isn't that amazing!!
7. Things that make me cry amaze me......i can deal with the everyday issues of life...you know ... living from pay check-to-paycheck....the over due bills....the husband and kids that drive you nuts....the normal stress of being a working wife and mother........but can i handle two young women getting off of a plane and hugging their families or the ending of a good love story or a Disney animal movie or a Hallmark Card........ NO!..... I can't.......they get me every time....!!
Gotta go ....i need a tissue!!...... and i've got one.....that's amazing!!
Enjoy!
