thankful

i'm thankful for the life that God has given me. i'm thankful for all of the ups and downs, all of the many experiences and happenings. they've made me who i am today. i'm thankful for my family and friends and people i haven't met yet. i'm thankful for js and pbs and for being able to stay home with pbs while js goes to work every day. i'm thankful for the roof over our heads, the food we are able to put on the table and in our tummies, the clothes we wear. i could keep going forever!

the month of november always seems to make people think about what they are thankful for. why is it that people are more thankful during november than the rest of the year? why are we thankful during the month of november but then december comes along and we turn into grinches? instead of becoming grinches, why not remember to thank God for sending His Son, Jesus? Jesus is the reason for the season! that's what i'm most thankful for!
