10.  Most of all, I am thankful that my heavenly father sent his son to die on the cross for my sins.  Because of this, I can one day leave this hard, cruel world and meet my maker and see all of the loved ones that have gone on before me.  This is by far the best gift I have ever received and for this I am truely THANKFUL!




Happy Thanksgiving!!

7.  When driving to or from work in rush-hour traffic, I am always thankful for one more minute with my babies.  You never know when God will decide to bring you home so I cherish every hug and kiss.  (Even though the bewitching hour is not my favorite time!!)

8. A wonderful, hard-working, God-fearing, High School sweetheart, had our ups and downs, best-friend, wonderfully singing, great dressing, fast driving, mexican eating, love of my life of a husband.

9.  MY ENTIRE FAMILY - From Husband, to children, to mom, to dad, to brother, to in-laws, to nephews, to grandparents, to aunts and uncles, to cousins and everyone in-between.  I am thankful for them ALL!

4.  The fact that I could stand to lose a few pounds!  This at least means that there is food on the table (or at least chicken wings! LOL).

5.  Air Conditioning in the heat and warmth in the cold! Whether it be in my home, car or work, I am thankful for it! 

6. Books to read, music to hear and shoes to walk in! Having these thing means I can see, hear and move!

Top 10 Things I Am Thankful For...











To Celebrate November, the month of giving thanks, I am posting a series of things I am thankful for. I am thankful for so many things that it will take me the entire month to narrow it down to only 10.  So, here is the beginning of the:

Top Ten Things I Am Thankful For



1.  The fact that my husband and I both have a job.  There were periods of time this year when we both weren't working.  That put a strain on our finances, among other things.  Thank you, God, for the blessing of having to go to work every day!

2.  I am thankful for a roof over my head.  At times I get tired of cleaning, fixing and paying for it but I am SOOOO thankful for it!

3.  I am thankful for my children's great teachers.  You never truely appreciate a great teacher until you have a not so great one!  This year we are truely blessed with wonderful, Godly influences for our children.
