Thankfulness

Sometimes we just need to stop and be thankful.

Marybeth Whalen encouraged all of us who follow her blog to ponder some things we are thankful for today. Yes mam!

- I'm thankful for my husband. He is the most patient, forgiving, and handsome (if I do say so myself!) man I have ever met.
- I'm thankful for my two year old who is currently walking around our house with stickers plastered all over his belly.
- I'm thankful that I not only have a roof over my head - but I have food in the pantry, clothes in our closets, and a computer to blog on.
- I'm thankful for scripture like Philippians 4:6-7.
- I'm thankful for petty things like my old ripped blue jeans, and my hot pink nail polish.
- I'm thankful for my freedom and for those that defend it.
- I'm thankful for my family and friends all over the country.
- I'm thankful that I get to stay at home with my son.
- I'm thankful for our health and safety.
- I'm thankful I got to move around a lot as a kid.
- I'm thankful for Jesus, The Bible, and a God who still speaks.
- And among lots of others things and people.....I'm thankful for YOU :)

What are you grateful for today?

Hey! I am enjoying reading through your posts. :) This is a great list. I love the one about your son with the stickers on his belly. :) Reminds me of when my girls were younger and two of them HAD to have bandaids on their bellies EVERY day! :)
Sweet, sweet memories!
Thanks for coming by today!
Blessings,
