Zoe vs. 30 Days of Gratitude

Zoe here. In honor of my fifth Thanksgiving on this earth, I figured it was time to share what I'm grateful for. Or Mommy figured it was time. Six of one, yada yada.

You've probably seen those 30 Days of Gratitude lists all over big peoples' computers. Mommy has never taken part so I don't know why I have to, but anyway here's my 30. (I can count higher but I don't want to rub it in the faces of those who can't.)

I think they're too big for their mommies to pick up.

30 Things I'm Grateful For: A List from Zoe (Me)

1. Apple juice

2. Apple juice

3. Apple juice

Now that that's out of the way . . . 

4. Pasta, the circle kind. (Ed.: wagon wheels.) I could eat them every night. (Ed.: She does.)

5. Going to the park.

6. Riding my tricycle in the park.

7. Riding someone else's tricycle in the park.

8. TV

9. Paw Patrol. Dora. Dora and Friends. Paw Patrol. Team Umizoomi. Paw Patrol. Bubble Guppies. Super Why! (This one may change.)

10. Rocks

11. Frozen

12. My toys from Frozen

13. My Elsa costume

14. That I can shoot ice from my fingers. (Ed.: She can't.) Tchoo! Tchoo!

15. Mommy's phone. It has games.

16. Friends. I can show them my Frozen toys which they don't have and they can feel good for me and pleased that I am their friend.

17. That I'm this big. (Ed.: Um . . . forget it.)

18. The pigeon in Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus because he's allowed to yell even though it's bedtime.

19. My routine. It gives me a semblance of control in this chaotic world. I DO NOT have OCD, as Mommy "jokes." She needs to stop stigmatizing me.

20. Chocolate milk 

21. Presents. 

22. Hot chocolate

23. Tickle fights

24. Chocolate

25. Rice Krippies 

26. The yellow horse that loves me and is my favorite. (Ed.: coin-operated horse she won't let me put money in.)

27. Grandmas and assorted others---aunts, uncles, and cousins---who do my bidding.

28. Daddy, who is wrapped around my finger

Let's see . . . who or what am I forgetting. . . ?

29. Harley! Our cat! I'm so so thankful she is in my life. She lets me pet her and I just love her so so much.

I'm getting a dirty look from . . . oh that's right:

30. Mommy, because she's always ready to drop whatever she's doing and play with me. Stop typing now, Mommy. And can you get me juice? Thanks in advance.

Happy Thanksgiving---we'll see you in two weeks!

Hate to be a jerk but where's the ketchup?
