Happy Thanksgiving

It was a pretty good Thanksgiving.

Although, instead of the normal feeling of gratitude, I realized how UNgrateful I have been this season.

Two neighbors asked us if we wanted to spend thanksgiving with them. And we responded with "maybe, we'll get back to you". And both response we forgot to respond to until they came to us asking.  And we PLANNED on inviting our neighbor, Grandma Helen, over for dinner. Once again, we forgot about that as well until right before dinner time to find out that she had already decided to buy all the food for herself and cook and eat Thanksgiving dinner alone because her kids already had plans. Then we eat a huge feast with just our family with a ridiculous amount of leftovers and there were so many we could have shared with.

I am feeling a bit UNgrateful for such amazing neighbors.

But I truly am grateful for them and need to not take them for granted so much.

There is so much good to be done. 

I forget to think of others too often.

Time to get off my high horse and do some good for others.

I am grateful for my health.

I am grateful for my children.

I am grateful for my husband.

I am grateful for our home.

I am grateful for so much food that we can eat leftovers for days.

I am grateful for my wonderful friends and neighbors.

I am grateful for family who care about me and love me.

I am grateful for all the choices I am choose.

I am grateful for God.

I am grateful for Christ.

I am grateful to be me.
