Thanksgiving

I've been thinking lately of things I am thankful for. It goes with the season. It's almost embarrassing the amount of blessings in my life. I am very fortunate and sometimes get hung up on things that really don't matter. I take my life for granted. How many of us are guilty of this? It is so easy to get bogged down in the drudgery of everyday life. I was lamenting the fact that my house is never truly clean (by my standards). It's down right depressing at times how cluttered my home has become. The other day as I was thinking of this, I remembered having a spotless house and years of not having to spend much time to keep it clean. I then was reminded of how there were no toys, no childish laughter, no artwork crowding my refrigerator door. I was humbled that I have been given two wonderful little blessings. Today I am actually thankful for my messy home and all that goes with it. May you all count your blessings and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
