THANKFUL THURSDAYS

These will all be short and sweet, because I'm sure I will elaborate on all of these things, on a later date. 
plus, I'm exhausted. 
Playing Santa can be rough! ;)


Although I love my school, and the kids, I am thankful that today was our last day. All good things must come to an end, and we did it with a bang. :) It was great!

***

I am thankful for the beautiful shawl and matrushka doll my school gave me as a going away gift. They are incredibly beautiful :) and large!

***

I am thankful for the light snow fall today. A perfect setting against my red coat and white beard...

***

and on that note, I am thankful I was able to dress up like Santa Clause and deliver gifts to Sergey in his class today. It was the greatest moment ever!

***

Except, one moment beat it, and that was when Sergey jumped out of his car and gave me a big hug, right before we both left. I am SO thankful for that. :) 

***

I am thankful that I get to sleep in tomorrow!!!!!

***

I am thankful that I get to do a little cleanse of the body for the next two days. It will be soooo good for my entire insides. I couldn't even tell you how much junk is stored up inside. :/ 

***

I am thankful that I have the best son in the world, and that he has the best dad in the world. ;)

***

and, speaking of Dads, I am sooooooo grateful for mine! and I can't WAIT to give and get, a giant bear hug from him in only TWO DAYS!!!! I love him :D
