We are thankful for....

We've decided to do a gratitude countdown until Thanksgiving. We are going to post one thing we are grateful for each day on our blog until we are eating our Thanksgiving turkey. We are getting started a little late so you get to read about three things that we are grateful for during this post.

November 1--We are thankful for our family. We love each member in our family and are grateful that we can be a forever family. Each child has their own personality that they bring to the dynamic of our family unit. We feel a loss when one of our family members is not with us. We don't like empty chairs at our dinner table. November 2- We are grateful for a job. With the tough economy and financial problems in the world, we are especially thankful that Stephen has a job that provides us with our physical needs. We have been blessed.

November 3- We show gratitude for food. We really are thankful that we have food to eat. We have sufficient for our needs and never struggle with knowing where our next meal will come from. Our hearts go out to the hungry people in the world who suffer. As a mother I cannot even imagine not being able to feed my children.
