thankful thursday

This week I am thankful for:



* my beautiful little pianist and the excellent job she did in her first recital
* royalty checks
* time spent with 5- and 6-year-olds
* good conversations with students
* successful senior seminar lectures
* colleagues
* my family
* sunshine... and rain
* cupcakes
* chicken noodle soup
* butter
* new running shoes
* buds on trees

How about you?
