Happy Thanksgiving


Happy Thanksgiving to all who read this post.

Since it is Thanksgiving, I thought I would list a few things I'm thankful for.

I'm thankful that my children are healthy, I am healthy, and my husband is healthy.

I'm thankful that my husband has a job in this time that many do not.

I'm thankful for family that lives nearby.

I'm thankful for friends. (Had a great visit with some friends the other night. Hope, you might know them. ;))

I'm thankful for friends who are willing to drop everything and help out.

I'm thankful for new friends who are willing to give up a whole day just to meet us in person.

I'm thankful for being able to get back in touch with old friends via the internet.

I'm thankful that we still have the freedom to worship as we choose. I just skimmed through a book about martyrs in the last 100 years. Very eye-opening.

I'm thankful that I can choose where to school my children. I'm grateful to those that have blazed the homeschooling trail before me and that I can teach my children at home.

I'm thankful for many things we often take for granted; reading, writing, seeing, hearing, tasting (although sometimes I'm NOT thankful for the pounds that some tasting adds on).

I'm thankful for the weather these last few days. Not too cold, not too hot; perfect fall weather.

I'm thankful for so many things, that it would take all day and night to list them, and then I would have to start over again. :)

So tell me...what are YOU thankful for?



Until next time...

I did a post about other things I'm thankful for already, so I'll just say I'm thankful to have gotten back in touch with you and your family again, too because I didn't have that one up on my blog. :o)
