Today I am thankful for....

- My morning cup of coffee yum!
- That I am seeing the beginning of another week with good health and happiness.
- For my beautiful garden full of vegetables which we're enjoying tending to and eating.

Ok, your turn, what are you thankful for today?

Thank you Barb that was beautiful.

I am thankful for opportunities that surprize me.  I got another call to come down the hill today for a special class they want me to teach, how the heck they heard about me is beyond me.  But I did not ask as I do not want to know, God is in control and I am only along for the ride.

I am also thankful that we can pray for others and that I know in my heart God will listen.  He may not answer that prayer in the way I think is best, but he will answer in the ultimately right way.  TOday I am thankful that he will be with someone I am praying about and for today and I pray that he helps her as I know she is in terrible pain.  So today I am thankful for God and his blessings.

Today, as i listen to the sound of the gardeners working in the front yard, and the two young men tearing down walls in the back of the house.... I am thankful for those who have the strength and expertise to do what I could not as easily do.

And, for a job that lets me pay for this stuff!

And, for a home to even work on...

And, I'm thankful for good friends, of all sorts! And for God's grace and mercies, which are NEW every morning!

Good Morning Barb!

Today I am thankful for:

My faith, because it teaches me not to rely on myself.

My family, because through me they can be educated

My husband, because through him I can learn love and patience

My life, because being alive is great

My OH friends, because they care and show me I am not alone.

and I am thankful to you, Barb, for starting this daily thread. You surely are a blessing in my life. Your daily quotes speak to me each morning. and I thank you. Many hugs to you my friend and love, too.

Today, I am thankful for....

My job even though I don't like it.  I know God is in control and has me here for a reason even if I don't see it.

My church that keeps me grounded and makes me feel loved.

My kids even though they drive me crazy.

OH for the support over the last 6+ years and the friendships that I have made.
My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.-- Maya Angelou

Today I'm thankful for misguided teenagers that have now left a huge smile on my face.

As I was running down Beach Blvd. today, a car full of teenagers whistled at me.  I about died laughing, because I'm SURE once they turned around and saw me from the front, they realized I could be their mother and were completely grossed out. 

But I will be smiling the rest of the day.
