Thankful

There are many things I can list that would make me smile with gratitude, here are just a few:

1. My Salvation

2. My husband's longsuffering and considerate, passionate love

3. My children - for each different personality within them

4. The hand of God on our family

5. Our wonderful family and friends who seem to always be there when needed

6. My home

7. Razor blades - I know it seems silly - I just CANNOT STAND hairy legs

8. Peppermint Mocha Twists at Starbuck's (hint, hint to those who love me)

9. My computer

10. Disinfectant Wipes - whoever thought these up needs an award

11. Cannot forget my dishwasher, and washer and dryer - that's a no brainer

12. Quiet times - Yes, I do have these - late, late, late at night

13. My daughter's butterfly kisses

14. Chloe's outreached hands

15. A quick meal idea

16. A snow day

17. A good sale

18. My steam mop

19. For Isaac putting away his clothes

20. For a movie night with the fam aka: floor parties

21. For the things that make me cry, but help me grow

Really for everything and anything that the Lord allows in my life. For the bible tells us to give thanks for it all. For in it all we can grow, become stronger. My family is richly blessed even through trials.

Happy Thanksgiving!
