Gratitude

What a beautiful fall day in East Tennessee, I would rather be here than anywhere else on earth.

This afternoon as I was rocking Charlotte to sleep, I was literally overcome with gratitude. I am so grateful to God for giving me this feeling of absolute contentment. With David alseep in the recliner, my children in the next room watching football together, and Charlotte in my arms, I know I have everything I have ever wanted. Everyone is happy and healthy and I just wanted to soak in the moment.

Here are some pictures of Charlotte from this afternoon. She is growing so fast.

It,s been a good fall break. Yesterday, David and I went to Nashville for a little shopping and a little Cheesecake Factory. Yum!

Here is a picture of the pineapple upside down carrot cake that I made for dessert today. It was a hit. If you are interested, here is the recipe. I used raisins in place of the pecans.
