I have decided that, in line with my goal to be more grateful this year, I am going to start Thankful Thursdays! This, like most other cool things I do, is not my original idea. I am totally benefiting from someone else’s grand idea. (Feel free to click on the Thankful Thursday icon to be directed to a great blog entitled, “Sting My Heart,” there’s some great stuff there.) Now, onto my inaugural entry…

Things I am thankful for this week.

  • I am grateful for my father-in-law’s recovery. Thank God for modern medical technology and skilled physicians and nurses who know exactly what to do in a crisis situation!
  • I am so grateful for my son’s school. He just came home and he is so happy. He has the best teacher who is so encouraging and fun. He is learning so much and just loves school!
  • I am so thankful for MOPS! We had a meeting yesterday and it is such a great group of women. I always walk away with a warm heart and a smile on my face.
  • I am grateful for this whole world of blogs that I am discovering more and more everyday. In one sitting I can read things that make me cry or laugh until my sides hurt. There are so many talented writers out there with such great things to share.
  • I am thankful for a husband who isn’t upset when I’ve gotten next to nothing done in a day because I spent so much time reading blogs!
  • Finally, I am so grateful for my baby boy who celebrates his first birthday tomorrow. He has brought immeasurable joy to my life over this past year and I could never find the words to say a proper “Thank you” to God for him!
