Editor’s note – More wonderful expressions of gratitude: Undonelady, Andie, Leta Joy, Narah
(Did you write a gratitude post this Thanksgiving season? If so, please link it in the comments. I find them lovely and uplifting and, hey, that’s what this happiness blog is all about.)
#43 I’m thankful for all the little joys in life that most people take for granted: kids laughing in their sleep, a big bear of a dog who loves to cuddle, nature walks, a memory-inducing song, yummy food, a good book, scarf weather, long phone calls, clean laundry, a gentle rain, frothy lattes, “snail” mail and freedom of creative expression…just to name a few.
#42 I’m thankful for my son. He is growing into such a sweet, goofy, intelligent, talkative young man. I seriously don’t know what I would do without him in my life!
#41 I am thankful for the lessons life has taught me. Not always easy, but always a source of growth. And that’s what’s most important.
#40 I’m thankful that I have a loving husband, two sons, and an exceptional extended group of family and friends that I can count on in the best, and the worst of times.
#39 I’m grateful for my family, for the family I found when I got married…the family that showed me what a family can be, how they should be. The family that never stopped looking for me, that gave me a history.
#38 I’m grateful for the family my hubby and I made, and the fact that when it comes down to it, as long as we are together, we can get through anything.
#37 I am thankful for my Mama calling me at 6:00am to wish me a happy birthday and to my husband that got up before the call to make me coffee and light my 29 candles even though I was born in 1975.
