Thankful Thursday

What is one thing you're thankful for? Okay, I won't limit you to one... you can name everything you're thankful for!

This forum...for its overwhelming advice, support, love, prayers, and encouragement.  For stories that make you realize you're not alone. For my 13 month old son who is the light of my life.  His laugh, his dancing, his pitter-patter, his everything.  My wonderful, supportive husband, who through everything we're going through (a possible molar pregnancy or multiples, financial troubles and his recent knee injury) tries to keep me positive.  For my friends who keep my mind off of my current pregnancy.  For my mother-in-law (yes I did say that) who is the best m-i-l a girl could have.  For good thunderstorms in the summer.  For Fall almost being here.  For God and His many blessings and providing us with everything (and more) that we need even if we are going through tough times.  I am truly blessed.

Fantastic RESPONSES!!! I just felt there was so much bad news, or not-so-good news. We need to remind ourselves of the wonderful things in our lives. I hope this post helped bring a bit of sunshine to your days!!!


As for what I'm thankful for........ I am thankful for my house, for being FREE, for my beautiful children, and for my hubby (bless his heart, he just came home sick from work).

Wow, well I am thankful for my husband and my children.  I cannot imagine my life without my family.  I love them all with all of my heart.  My kids do and say things that bring tears to my eyes almost daily :)  One day we will have tons of grandkids and I am already excited about that even though it is years away I surely hope!!

I love my extended family also, but don't want them too close :)  But I am thankful for them.

I am thankful to have a job that is very good to me as I have a big family.  Just this morning I was late because I had to register my 5 year old for kindergarten and my job is always very understanding about family.

I am thankful to have a nice home in a nice neighborhood with nice neighbors that we trust.  It gives us peace of mind and you can't buy that anywhere so I am very thankful for that.

I am thankful to God for giving me all of the blessings in my life and I try very hard to always remember that when things get tough....that it could always be much worse.

Oh, and I know I already said I was thankful for my kids but I am also thankful that they are all healthy.  That is such a blessing in itself.

And I am thankful for this board and all of your wonderful ladies who have been there for me through some tough times.  I have met a lot of wonderful people here; some which I hope to always have as friends.

I don't think I can put into words how thankful I am of having my husband.  I met him by chance and he's been my strength, my support, my friend and hopefully (and I'm proud to say this) he will be the father of my children.  I couldn't ask for anything else.  We are a team and I love him, every little bit.  And our doggies they are so cute!
I am thankful of my family, I wouldn't be me without them. And my friends for giving me a chance to get to know me and like me back :)

anymore, i'm thankful for everything...the good the bad and the ugly, cos personally i believe if we didnt have "those" days, we wouldnt fully appreciate the good ones!

and as funny as this sounds, i'm really thankful to chris, b/c i've always had a bad history when it comes to being/getting pregnant, and with him, i've been able to get pregnant, enjoy it, and i'm lready in the home stretch w/someone who loves me as much as i love him.....i always thought i'd never have kids after my last m/c b/c some dr's thought i had too much scar tissue(?), and ven though we were both kind of upset and shocked when we found out, it's probably the best thing we've had happen between us.....*reason i'm thankful to him, duh lol---he had wanted to gt a vasectomy a yr ago when he got insurance again, but just kept putting it off.....and BAM now we have one on the way together   ;)

I am so very thankful for my wonderful husband who goes out every day into the city and works his butt off and deals with annoying customers and the nasty sludge they pour into their drains just so that he can come *home* every day to his family!!

I am thankful that my little Baby Ohz is squiggling around in my tummy.  It gives me such confidence that this baby is growing and is healthy.

I am thankful for my family ...my parents, grandmother, and brother.  They are all such wonderful people who I am blessed to have in my life.

I am thankful for the roof over my head and the food in our cabinets ...all of which my husband works so hard to provide!  <3

I am thankful for my beautiful dog, Luna ...without whom I wouldn't have had 'practice' at unconditional love ...and discipline!  lol  She is my bear and I loves her so!

I am thankful for all my wonderful friends ...in real life and thru the computer.  It is always wonderful to have support from other women, whether they be near or far ...have gone thru similar things or haven't.  So, thank you to all of your wonderful ladies who have given me advice, support, and love!!  =D

I'm thankful for so many things that I could never name just one...but God, family, friends, health, a roof over my head and food on my table top the list.

The more I see in this world, the more I'm thankful for the "little" things that I usually take for granted:

Eyesight, the ability to walk and get around on my own, living in a free country (no matter how bad it may seem sometimes with the crime, high taxes on every single thing, and crooked politicians), beautiful scenery and sunsets, there are SO many things! But I don't want this to sound like a sappy poem or love song! LOL
