This week I am thankful that this man is still a part of our life. Last week our dear friend had a major heart attack and we are grateful that he is still here for his family and friends. Thankful to God that He saw fit to grant my sweet friends more time together. Hug, kiss, text, email and call the ones you love! Let them know that you are thankful for them.

Thankful Thursday

  • For our house and 3 toilets that I need to clean.
  • For our washer and dryer.
  • For our dishwasher and refrigerator.
  • For our computers and cell phones.
  • For the vast variety of foods available to us each and everyday.
  • For A/C and heater.
  • For clean water.
  • For comfortable beds and blankets.
  • For medicine and immunizations.

This list is to remind me of the things that are so easy to take for granted, rather than be thankful for. There are people all over the world who dream of having a life as easy as mine.

What are you thankful for today?
