Thankful Thursday

Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful.
-- Buddha 


That is one of many quotes I love and want it framed to hang on my wall as a daily reminder.

One of my many New Year's Resolutions is to be more thankful for my many blessings.  I'm going to be writing Thankful Thursdays to remind myself that I have many wonderful things to be grateful for no matter what stress is going in my life.

I am Full of Thanks for many things in my life, here are a few for today:

• My wonderful husband, for showing me with everyday small gestures that he loves me.
• Nadia, for being the loving little girl that she is and always ready for a hug. She is always full of cheer no matter the situation, her smile brightens my day.
• My little sister Melissa, even though she moved out of state she still depends on me to be her shoulder to lean on. 
• My older daughters Lauryn and Morgan, for their continued health and happiness as they mature into young ladies.
• Maxx's quick recovery from his first cold. It was a horrible, emotionally and physically exhausting week.  
• My wonderful group of friends/mothers on Facebook for always making me laugh when I need it the most.  You know who you Hot mama's are.

What do you have to be thankful for today?
