Giving Thanks

As Thanksgiving day draws near I'm sharing, as best I can, what I am truly thankful for. I've had a gratitude journal for 17 months now and my list has grown to well over 1000. When it comes right down to it on many wintry mornings the seat heater in the car tops the list. But the following list, in pictures, comprises that which is nearest and dearest to my heart, that for which I am most grateful .

1)
2)
The guy I've been blessed
to share adventures with for 33+ years!
3)
My two sweet daughters, 1994

Us four

4)
Role models in life and love

5)
Big brothers!

And their precious offspring!



6)
Jack my big cuddly therapy cat

7)
Aunts who took the time to share their
love of fiber arts with a child
8)
Cousins

And more cousins!
9)
Old friends 

Staying connected 

Just getting better with time:)

10)
New friends (& food)

& More new friends (& more food)


And the list goes on! People who have been blessings in my life. My exercise class, walking buddies, life group, etsy teams, hair cutter, dentist, orthodontist, the milk man, the trash collectors, grocery clerks...it's endless!




What are you most grateful for? Dwell on that every day and have a blessed Thanksgiving!

  1. Wonderful post! I started a blessings journal but just can't seem to remember to write in it! You have inspired me to revisit it!

  2. I was blessed by reading yours. I have one too - inspired by Ann Vosscamp.

  3. I too am very bad with journaling. I started art journaling and I haven't done that in so long. You so blessed with friends and family!
