Default What are you thankful for?

I feel thankful for many things this morning and so I thought I'd start a thread where we could all share what we are thankful for. I heard a quote the other day that said what if God only gave you the things you thanked Him for yesterday? Religious or not, I'm sure there are things we are all thankful for!

Here are some of mine:
I'm thankful that even though it feels like I have been whiny since I came back you have all been very welcoming. I am trying very hard to not be that type of person.

I am thankful for each of you.

I'm thankful that IP has helped me lose a lot of weight and will help me lose more.

I'm thankful for my family; that I have a husband who loves me now matter what I weigh, that I have kids that are fabulous and will help when they have needed and all are very close to our Church.

I'm thankful my daughter is marrying a good man--though I'd be thrilled if it was a good man with a good job!

I'm thankful for my job and the people that I get to work with and for.

I am thankful that we have so many friends and family that it is difficult to narrow down the invitation list.

I'm thankful I get to dance with my husband.

I'm thankful for my little nuisance cats.

I'm thankful for our home as it gets colder outside.

Oh there is so much more I could list, so I'm sure I'll just edit the list as things go on.

I'm thankful for my cute little girl. I'm kind of too old to be her mama, so she inspires me to lose weight and be healthy so I can live long and take good care of her!
