Happy Thanksgiving!

I have so many things to be thankful for, but I often forget or overlook them when problems arise or obstacles appear in my way. I've seen many people naming something they're thankful for everyday in November on their facebook status; I didn't join in with everyone else, but I am indeed grateful for the many ways the Lord has blessed us and on this day, Thanksgiving, I want to share a few of those things.

My husband. He works so hard to provide for us. He is constantly gracious and patient with me and he makes me want to be a better person.

Ezekiel. My precious baby boy. I love spending my days with him.

A place to live -- we are warm, safe, and dry.

Food and water.

Jeremiah's job.

Clothes and shoes.

My health.

Family.

Friends.

A computer - to stay connected with others and find information quickly.

A Cell Phone so I can talk to my friends and family.

Our car.

Dora. I love having an animal to pet and (occasionally) cuddle.

I know this is just a short list and there are many more things I could list, but more than anything it's just a reminder to be thankful for the things I have.

To life... full of a thankful heart.
