thankful

I blinked and here we are on November 18th, days before Thanksgiving. 

Are you ready?

I'm not.

I wanted to do all these crafts with the kids 

and savor the moments of this month 

of celebrating 

GRATITUDE.

I know we still have a few days before we celebrate Thanksgiving, but

really I want to share and show the kids

its not just a day or month that we should celebrate being Thankful.

We should be Thankful all the time.

So I wanted to share what I am thankful for.

I am thankful for God, who blesses me each day.

I am thankful for our church.

I am thankful for my hubby, who works hard long hours each day.

I am thankful that I am able to be a stay at home Mom.

I am thankful for our home.

I am thankful for my family.

I am thankful for the " I love you's"

I am thankful for the hugs and kisses from my kids.

I am thankful for the stories that my children share with me.

I am thankful that when my washer was broken for the MONTH of October, my Mom came to the rescue!

She not only let me use her washer, she washed and folded my clothes many times through out the month. "Thank you, Mom."

I am thankful for my little shop and how it is growing.

I am thankful for my camera. That I am able to take pictures and document our lives.

I am thankful for the dirty dishes. It means that we have food for our family.

I am thankful for the mountains of laundry that need to be washed and folded. It means my family has clothes.

I am thankful for each and everyday God has blessed me with.

Have a great Thanksgiving week with your families!
