and I'm thankful that my husband attends church with me weekly. That means a lot to me.

I'm thankful for my church and my pastor who puts things in perspective for me:)

Today in church I saw a man that I've known for years and had his son in preschool when I worked at St. Marys. Unfortunately, Gary has MS and is in a wheelchair and has been for a long time now. His spirit seems good and obivously he gets around with the aid of his wheelchair. When I saw him, I smiled to myself because it was good to see him. But I'm so grateful for my arms and legs and my health. The fact that I'm able to bend down or run after something. Some of the things that we take for granted at times and seem like nothing are some of the things others don't have or aren't capable of doing and would give the world to have back. Thank you for all that I have.

The fact that I'm retired !!!! I Love not having to put up with the hassel of an everyday job and all that goes with it. I love the fact that I can do what I want, need to do. I guess I want to add to that the fact I've had the ability to work which belive it or not has helped me to become wiser:)

For the memories I have of growing up with a mom and dad who cared:)

I'm thankful for the snow that falls so gently to the ground and turns everything white:) It is beautiful!!

I look back at the holidays and I say "thank you" for the time I had to spend with family and friends.
