I have been talking with Ellie about things we should be, and are thankful for. So with that I decided to list one thing I am thankful for each day, and then I will post it to the side under my 30 days of thankfulness file. I am hoping that this will help her to better understand how very grateful I am for everything in my life, the big and the small. And since she is learning to read, I can help her read them on our computer. So with that, I begin day one of my thankfuls.
30~ I am thankful for all that I have been given in my life.
29~ I am thankful for the wonderful Christmas lights that adorn our street so soon this Holiday Season.
28~ I am thankful for my talents.
27~ I am thankful that tonight is Rays last night on, and then he is off for 7 days straight. I love the time we get to spend with eachother.
26~ I am thankful for my thyroid medication. Without it, I become someone my family does not care to be around. haha
25~ I am thankful that Jake and Ellie are finally acting like they feel a little bit better. A solid week of being sick and grumpy, along with a husband who is now sick, makes for one crazy momma... :/
24~ I am thankful for Skyler and Porter, and the good examples they are to my children.
23~ I am thankful for warm socks. (my toes have been freezing lately)
22~ I am thankful for Childrens Benedryl Allergy relief medicane. (we discovered yesterday that jake is allergic to something in pecan pie).
21~ I am thankful that I am almost done redoing my bathroom. The new paint, and shower curtain, have given it a new happy look.
20~ I am thankful for my Freedom.
19~ I am thankful for sisters, who also make good friends.
18~ I am thankful for the memories I have of a loving Grandpa. ( I sure do miss his hugs, and kisses)
17~ I am thankful for a good running vehicle.
16~ I am thankful for my wonderful nieces and nephews, and the great people they are.
15~ After last night, I am thankful for Crayolas washable markers, and the fact that they wash off so nicely... ;)
14~ I am thankful for my CARMEX lip salve, and how quickly it helps my dry, chapped lips.
13~ I am thankful for the good friends I have made in my life.
12~ I am thankful for my cell phone which keeps me connected to Ray anytime of the day, or night. :)

8~ I am thankful for Ellie's friends, and the good examples they are to her.
7~ I am thankful for our extended family, and the support they are always so willing to give. Through rain or shine our family has been there. I love them for all they do for us.
6~ I am thankful for my home, and the shelter it provides.
5~ The Gospel of Jesus Christ, and the knowledge I have of a loving Father in Heaven.
4~ My rocking chair. Without it, the sleepless nights my kids have when they are sick would seem endless.
3~ I am thankful for both my digital camera, and my camcorder. Without them I wouldn't be able to capture every moment of my kids' lives.
2~ I am thankul for Ellie & Jake, they make my everyday a good day.
1~ I am thankful for a wonderful husand who loves his family so much, and takes such good care of us.

That is such a cute idea. so clever. oh and by the way... AGAIN you have the cutest kids. I always get a kick out of the things ellie says and jake is such a little stud.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!!! Do you mind if I follow in your footsteps?
ReplyDeleteSo are you linking anywhere so I can read all of them? I'm only cusious because I think I might have missed one (or maybe 2) and I wanted to read it. Let me know if I'm missing something... :)
ReplyDeleteIt's such a nice idea, that's why I LOVE my fortunate fridays. It really gets me thinking and appreciating sometimes the little things I might otherwise just forget and let slip.
