"Let's see how many people can do this. Every day this month until Thanksgiving think of one thing that you are thankful for and post it "Today I am thankful for..." The longer you do it the harder it gets! Now if you think you can do it then post what you are thankful for today!

Have to add mine today...

I work as a grant writer for a non-profit organization that does amazing work for children with disabilities. I was supposed to send a request to this foundation for a lot of money but by mistake sent it later than I was supposed to. I thought I had lost the organization the money and felt absolutely terrible! HOWEVER - they just told us they are going to give us a really (really!) large grant!

Feeling very, very thankful...

Yesterday (which I forgot to post) I was thankful for how well my DS10 did handling a big decision in his life. He had to choose from 3 Boy Scout troops, which one he wanted to join, and he went about it with a very thoughtful and pragmatic approach. He was decisive, but thorough. That's a good skill to have, which hopefully will serve him well in life.

Today I am thankful for my boys' good behavior. There are times when they don't behave as well as I like, but this morning I needed to conduct a telephone interview for work while they were still home and I needed them to get off to school themselves, quietly and with no bickering (usually a hard task in the morning). They really took it seriously and rose to the occasion; I was proud.
