Being Thankful

Too many times, I focus on the things I don't have, rather than what I do have. This Thanksgiving I'm thankful for many things. In no particular order. . . 

1. 2 beautiful, loving and healthy children
2. My wonderful and adoring husband
3. A house
4. Our near 5.5 acres of land
5. A reliable car that I love!
6. A job, and therefore a paycheck and insurance
7. Generous and loving parents
8. Generous and loving in-laws
9. My brother and sister
10. My brother-in-law and sister-in-law
11. My friends, near and far
12. Soccer
13. Glee!
14. Electricty and running water!
15. Spring, Summer, Winter and Fall
16. Lazy Sundays (and sleeping in)
17. Chickens that are so generous with their eggs. Too generous maybe. Anyone need any eggs?
18. Coca-Cola
19. Living in a free country
20. Music
21. The internet that allows me to make silly lists like this and publish them for the world to see.
22. College sports
23. Victoria's Secret
24. My children's artwork
25. Sunflowers
26. Literature
27. Having a great boss and great people to work with
28. My health
29. An education
30. sticky notes

I could go on and on, but I think 30 is a pretty respectable list. None of these things are perfect, but I love having them in my life none the less.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

And remember to be thankful for all that you do have!
