Thanksgiving

WOW! I CAN NOT believe that Thanksgiving is next week. Boy, time sure does fly by. I remember people telling me when I was in high school that once I graduated time would seem to never stop-how true.

Briggs has been learning about Thanksgiving at school (MMO) and yesterday Aaron said something to him about Thanksgiving and he said, "I'm thankful for you and mommy, my sissy (eaden), my Caden, my papa, and my gigi." Talk about melting the heart! I asked his teacher about it today and she said he said all of that in class all by himself! :) :) :)

A few (very few) of the things I'm thankful for:
1. A wonderful husband
2. a sweet little 3 year old son
3. family
4. friends
5. a great church
6. a job
7. food to eat
8. a place to live
9. a car to drive
10. a loving heavenly father who loves me despite it all!!

Don't forget to give thanks during this time of year - most of us don't; however, don't forget to give thanks all year round. There are places in our world where they don't have running water for toilets - something we all probably take for granted everyday. Don't just give thanks for the "big" things, but remember the small things as well.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

Now go eat some turkey!
