Thankfulness

Cliche this time of year, I know.  We all talk about thankfulness around thanksgiving.  But, in all honesty, that is not originally how this post started out.  I was going to tell you how I hate holidays for a whole slew of reasons.  Instead, I'm going to tell you how I'm planning to work on changing that! 

I was blog hopping this morning.  Like with most blog hopping I never know how I get where I end up, but I know that that is where I was supposed to end up!  God knows my heart.  He knows how I feel about all these holidays coming up.  Some of it is righteous feelings, some no so much.  Anyway, today he brought me to this post.  When you don't want to say thanks.  It's a post written by by Tsh Oxenreider of Simple Mom. 

Here is just a little excerpt from the post:
I’m still not in love with the poop or the what-is-that-on-the-floorboard?, but I’m a little more in love with the Giver of Life. I’m more aware of the unbelievable gifts soaked in my life. I’m humbled.

Feel free to hop around a little this morning and see where you end up!  It could be jsut what you need for today!
