Yeah, I thought I'd do one of those "list everything you're thankful for" entries today. So here goes:
I'm thankful for Christ, and being able to know that I have a personal relationship with the wonderful God that made me.
I'm thankful for a loving husband, who spoils me to no end and laughs at my everyday antics. I'm very thankful that we found each other against the odds, and that our love is reaffirmed every single day.
I'm thankful for my family, that even tho we may squabble from time to time, we truly love each other, and only want good things for each other.
I'm thankful for my dogs, because everyday they crack me up, and they teach me more about how humans really should behave all the time.
I'm thankful for my cat, who shows me how humans really DO behave, and that helps me strive to be more like my dogs!
I'm thankful for trees and all of nature, what a wonderful gift we've been given to enjoy. I hope everyone gets outside today and is able to express their thanks for that.
I'm thankful for the material possessions we have...a beautiful house, nice vehicles, all the little gadgets that make life fun, if not always simpler.
I'm thankful that we both have jobs in a somewhat shaky economy. I'm thankful that we both have good educations, and are pretty self-sufficient if we have to be. That leads me to being thankful for our parents, because I tend to think they did a pretty darn good job!
I'm thankful for my in-laws...and that says a lot in this society.
Of course this list isn't exhaustive, there's not enough room on this server to list all of the things I'm thankful for. But it's a start, and I hope everyone gets a chance to tell someone else what they're thankful for this weekend.
Happy Thanksgiving!
