How can I keep from singing!!

Well i was on facebook today as usual and i read a newsfeed from my friend sylvia who is blogging about 21 things she's thankful for, for the next 21 days... and i thought wow that's an awesome challenge for me especially with all the health issues i've been going through lately and so here I am...   
I'm always soo touched when I hear the song "how can i keep from singing" by chris tomlin... because if you really think about how awesome God is how can we ever stop.... and it's sad to think that it's sooo easy for us to forget and just be sooo negative so for the next 21 days i will try my hardest to focus on all the positive  things He is doing in my life.

21 thing i'm thankful for....
1. God for being soooooo awesome.
2. Windy days because it always makes me think about faith and how I want my faith to be soooo strong that i can move mountains.
3. Sylvia because God uses her and her randomness in ways that she wouldn't believe.
4.  My brother's even though i don't say it as much i get amazed sometimes how much i actually like them.
5. Breakfast foods cuz it's the best :)
6. My bible I'm excited that i'm actually reading it and learning new things everyday.
7.  Christian Music.... it elevates me and just fills my heart with so much joy.
8. The sunshine makes it seem a tad warmer than it is outside.
9. My mom who is always willing to cook me lunch even if i don't like it :)
10. My friends who stick by me no matter what.
11.  Freedom of choice because I like having options.
12. That i'm not allergic to any foods but celery
13. Elena that despite her young age she if full of wisdom.
14. The promise that God will provide... that helps in this economic crisis.
15. Jennifer my P.T. who was extra gentle with me today
16. Ice it helps reduce the swelling
17.  Carrots because they are the key ingredient to my favorite cake
18. Webcams because i can still see my old friends :)
19. jeanie and cj they made me smile today
20. the ability to speak spanish 
21. water... so many ppl have to travel miles for clean water and all i do is turn the knob...

Thank you Jesus for these 21 things and the many more I didn't mention
