Gratitude challenge to spread positivity

Thank you Leslie! I have been nominated by Leslie Ciarleglio, the most selfless, giving and kind hearted person I know to take on this challenge (5 days, 3 gratitude's, 3 nominees each day).  Jessica's "Daily Affirmation" video reminds us what a delightful 50 second gratitude session could look like, get ready to jump on your sink! Day 1:

I am grateful for my 4 children, Kyle who is creative, quick-witted, musical, compassionate, and empathetic, always willing to help and lend a hand, a hard worker. Colin is a sweet, loving non-judgmental young man, my "honey bear" with a sense of humor and beautiful smile.  Colin has brought compassion to our family.  Taya is smart, beautiful, quick witted, and a compassionate young lady with a keen talent for writing. She is a very good friend that will have your back during the good and bad.  Ian is intelligent, sensitive, driven, musical, and empathetic. When he puts his mind to do something he overcomes any obstacle and leads by example, a great leader.  I love them with all my heart and soul and I am very grateful for the wonderful adults they have become.  None of this would be possible with out my husband Tom, who together we have created beautiful loving children.  He is my rock, has my back, make me laugh, has an incredible work ethic, and has helped me become a better person. I am truly grateful he is in my life. 

If you were on a sinking ship, the 5 people you would want on board are listed above.  Today I nominate Taya Richardson, Tom Richardson and Ian Richardson (Kyle "...soon"!) 5 days, 3 gratitude's, 3 nominees each day...have at it!
