The one thing I have really been thinking since Thanksgiving is how much there is to be thankful for. We have jobs, school and a nice place to live. There are so many people out there who don't have these things. These are tough economic times and you can't always count on having a job. I know how it feels to not have one. I am just so thankful.
What brought this all on? Well, are there dates in your life that when that day comes, a moment of sadness comes too because of what happened on that day in the past? I realized this morning that for the first time, in a long time, that day passed without a thought. I didn't feel the sadness. In fact I didn't even think of it until weeks later.
I need to post pictures and such from our holiday with Heb's family and the 12 pies that mom and I made but for now I'm just going to be grateful.
Even in the bleakest of times, it will suprise you the blessings and joy that can be found. What are you thankful for? Is there a date that makes you feel the same way?

I'm thankful for the trials that I have had in my life! At the end of each one I have been incredibly blessed and realize how amazing life really is! I have a date like that too! I had no idea that it had passed until someone asked about it! Funny how that works!
