Thankful Thursday "A"

Thankful Thursday this week is the letter "A" America- That I am blessed to have been born and raised in the wonderful country. No matter what our nation goes through we always have the assurance that we are free! Amazing Grace- The song because it is one of my favorites. And when I told the kids that I wanted this song and another played out at my funeral Joshua broke into a dance of "Another One Bites The Dust". It makes me laugh every time I think of this song now. I also choke up at it too. That I have been amazingly given this thing called "grace" every day. Anchovies- Not really, but I was having a hard time with this last last one and thought that there probably aren't very many people that are thankful for anchovies. I tried, really I did, but anchovies kept popping in my head. I have never even tasted an anchovie but I figure someone has to be thankful for them. Okay, now I got one while I was typing the last part of the anchovies sentence. Alpha Omega Academy- My kids have had great times there and have been blessed with some wonderful teachers. Jeremy loves his job there. And, as many times as I have tried to talk about one or both of us doing something different he is sure that that is where he is supposed to be. So, I am thankful that we have such a great atmosphere for him to be able to work in and a place for our children to go when it is time for me to give them up.

  1. That is a great list and I LOVE that you thought of anchovies. I too want my list to be comprised of things that I may forget to be grateful for. I think most people will know the obvious things about me although I will use them where I need to. :) I think our movement is growing. I have facebook friends doing it now too. How nice, don't you think? Keep spreading the word because, how much nicer a day is being grateful for the little things and doing it with a friend.
    Cheers,
