I am Thankful for November

I love the month of November and the time we spend as a family thinking of the things we are thankful for.

- I'm thankful that Hannah was born in this month and that she's 5 now and is a great example to her younger brother and sister. I'm thankful that she's big enough to help me out now too.
- I'm thankful for a warm home and fireplace that I spend a lot of time in front of from now until about March.
- I'm thankful for the times my children play well together.
-I'm thankful that Abigail is my little shadow and it still in the stage of wanting to be with me all the time.
- I'm thankful for Aaron who works so hard to support his growing family.
- I'm thankful to live close to two of my sisters and my parents.
- I'm thankful for the laughter which comes from my children. Sometimes I wish I could bottle their laughs.
- I'm thankful for good health and the ability I have to strengthen my body.
- I'm thankful for random hugs and I love you's.
- I'm thankful for the primary children of our ward and their families. I believe Primary is the best calling in the church. (never thought I'd say that)
- I'm thankful for books. I love to read and love to find a book I can get lost in.
- I'm thankful for dear friends. I have been blessed with wonderful friends all of my life. They inspire me to always be the best I can be.
- I am thankful for my warm, wool coat.
- I'm thanful for the words, "mom, mama, ma, mommy, mother". Truly there is no better title in this world!
- I'm so thankful for a holiday that is called Thanksgiving just before another holiday that could be so self centered if we forget what it's really about.
