Thankful

I've been reminded this week thru various media forms (blogs, newsletters, etc.) of the importance of being thankful and the many positive benefits we reap from having a thankful heart. Someone suggested taking 2 minutes each day and just write down things you are thankful for. I LOVE this idea. And in hopes of helping myself stay accountable to this joyful activity I want to share my list with you on either Fri or Sat of every week.

Setting the timer.... here goes.....

loving husband

wonderful neighbors

family

privileged to carry a second child

God's unfathomable love for me

There it is. 2 minutes really isn't that long once you get going... 

and my mind goes in a zillion directions : )
