Happy Thanksgiving

I helped the kids make a Thanksgiving Turkey.  I thought I'd share.  I wrote X's thanksgivings on the left side of the turkey and E wrote her own on the right side.  X's list:  Thanksgiving food, Grandma Daron, Grandpa and Grandma, Home, Turkey and Healthy body.  E's list:  Mom and Dad, Food, Hand, God, Eyes and Grandpa and Grandma.

I love how their minds work.  I always find their thoughts interesting and sometimes they really surprise me what they come up with.   But, I am also thankful for everything on their list.

I am thankful for so many things.  I'm thankful for my husband and all the hard work he's doing to complete his Master's degree and his attempts to juggle family, school and work.   I'm thankful for my parents that are close by and support us with so many things.  I'm thankful for my kids that keep me on my toes every single day and keep me from getting bored.  I'm thankful for our church family that supports us financially and with prayers.  I'm thankful that the Lord has blessed our family with health.    God has so richly blessed us and I am so thankful for His mercy and grace.  Our blessings are too numerous to count...and for that I am thankful.
