Thank You Notes

Jen Hatmaker's book For the Love is so incredible on so many levels! I am not yet finished with it but I tell you what, my favorite chapters are her "Thank-You Notes" chapters. You know, like Jimmy Fallon's late night skits that he does where he thanks random items/things. Here's one of hers (that I have to agree with):

"Thank you, Daylight Savings Time, for making people wax on about the wonder of an extra hour of sleep, only to serve as an especially depressing reminder to parents that kids don't care about farmers and harvests and extra hours of daylight. I enjoy my kids standing at my bedside at 4:30 a.m. like creepy, wide-awake Children of the Corn. Naptimes are also jacked, so there's that. With all due respect-ish, A Tired Mom." (pg. 51 For the Love, Hatmaker)

How right-on-the-mark is that?!? I mean, really?!?! So for today's blog, let's share our funny, unusual, amusing thank you's. Here are a few of mine:

Thank you, Pee Pad Mattress Cover, for your glorious stretchy, plastic-y, saving grace. You are a little plastic wonder that saves my toddlers mattress from becoming a yellow crime-scene. Without you, I would be broke, and my child would be sleeping on a trash bag. 

Thank you, My Trusty, Daily-Wearing White Hat (if you know me, you know this hat!), for your ability to contain my crazy frizzy hot-mess of hair. You can make me look like I'm about to go workout, when really I am just going to the mailbox. You are worn everywhere...mall, grocery store, church (not on Sunday, of course!), around the house doing nothing...and everywhere in between. Thank you, trusty hat!

Thank you, UPS/FedEx/Any Package Delivery Service, for always conveniently dropping off packages and ringing the doorbell as soon as my child falls asleep for his nap. And it is not your fault. It's not because of you my child wakes up. You don't know that you have just unleashed the fury of my obnoxious barking dog (who will never, NEVER stop barking) at you for ringing the doorbell. Oh, yes, my 'Do not knock or ring the doorbell' paper note held up with Scotch tape has fallen off and blown to Timbuktu and I just keep forgetting to replace it. I'll do that now....

What are some of your thank-you notes? I would love to post them in another blog post!! Comment below and THANK YOU! :)
