what are you thankful for?

[Kteacher]

I know Thanksgiving is still a few days away, but I was thinking this morning about all the things I'm thankful for this year. I'm not talking about the obvious things, like your family. I'll start( and excuse me for being a little self absorbed ) This Thanksgiving I'm thankful that my hip is finally feeling better. It's taken almost 8 months, but I'm finally starting to feel like my old self again, and that is something I'm really thankful for

 

[tiggerlover]

I am thankful your hip is feeling better too.

I know you said besides family, but I am most thankful for them, especially my husband and son. I am blessed to have them in my life. I am also thankful for my dad's recovery from open heart surgery and for the little blessings in my life.

 

[helenabear]

These are great things to be thankful for.

I am thankful for all we currently have right now. We had some rough spots that made us realize how very very lucky we really are to have all that we do!

I am thankful that our 3 beautiful children are healthy. I am thankful that they all have wonderful loving teachers! I am thankful to still have my dad here to share in the joys of his grandkids!

 

[luvmy2sams]

I'm thankful that my family and I are leaving for Disney in 2 days!

Seriously, though...I'm thankful we've got a home of our own, cars that get us where we need to go, food in the fridge, a little (very little!!) money in the bank, and a sense of humor about all life throws at us. I'm deeply thankful for my entire family and have an extra special "thank you" to say this year for the little one who won't make his/her appearance until next summer.

Perhaps, SONJA

Americans have a GREAT DEAL to be thankful for during ALL seasons.

However, if by quirk of fate most of us had been born in S. Africa, we'd be facing famine, starvation, the unbearable deaths of many of our children, and rampant HIV.

Perhaps instead of being thankful for what we have, we should ask ourselves how we can help those who have so little......

 

[WebmasterAlex]

oh oh, I am turning into an irritable webmaster

 

[SonjaB]

EROS, I like the way you think.

Maybe we can work on something DIS-wide. Bring a little holiday joy to someplace that might not otherwise see it.
