3 Gifts Ugly Beautiful:

-My body
Thank you, God, for my body.  It may not be conventionally beautiful, but I am choosing to believe it is beautiful to God and to those who truly love me.

-My house
Thank you, God, for our ugly beautiful house.  It is ugly because it is mostly hallway and the dining room leaves much to be desired but it is beautiful because I have my family here. 

-Christmas sweaters
Thank you, God, for funny "ugly beautiful" Christmas sweaters.  They are fun and festive.
