ABC's of Thanks

Finding Joy | The ABC's of Thanks

I decided to try my first linky party with rachel @ finding joy.  Link up and come up with your own thankful list.

A Alone time- it means my kids are busy at school or somewhere else and I do "my" thing!


B Boys- from my husband to my son. They solve problems differently and love their moms  differently.


C Candy. Chocolate. Need I say more? And Coca Cola. 


D Dogs. We miss ours and love our neighbors' dogs. Maybe we'll have another soon.


E Early mornings...workouts, sunrises, just sitting...


F Friends and family.  As I get older, both become more important. 


G  God and Grilled Cheese Sandwiches in all their glorious forms. 


H Help---whether my parents help with my kids, our neighbor who babysits or our vet who loved our dog like we did


I  Invitations to do things with friends


J Jet planes that bring far-away-friends to visit


K Kids. All 3 of them. And their friends who crack me up.


L  Life with all its moments good and bad. And Landmark Christian school.


M  Memories and Mallomars. Those are the. best. cookies. ever. 


N  Nutella and New shoes. 


O  Opportunities that we have to do good for someone else.


P   Pretzels dipped in chocolate and pets.  I love both.


Q  Quiznos sandwiches. Yum.  And quiet time. 


R  Read-Aloud books that all my kids enjoy- Anything SkippyJon Jones  will do.


S  Sleep and singing.  Not necessarily at the same time.


T  Time. It's precious and is moving way too fast.


U  Underwear? Umbrella? Unicorns? This was a hard letter. Upside-down cake? I am thankful for all of those.


V  Visiting friends, whether once a week or once a year. 


W  Winter. I love winter clothes, sweaters, boots, etc, etc.


X  "x-treme" sports on TV.  Some of the best in mindless entertainment!


Y  Yesterdays.  I'm thankful I have a huge number of yesterdays to look back upon and remember fun times!  And Yogurt. I love yogurt.


Z  Zip drives/files.  I  appreciate the fact that my friends can zip up a ton of pictures in a zip file and send it to me. Technology is awesome!


Happy Thanksgiving friends!
