Giving Thanks

As I sit here reflecting this past week I find that I am surprised how thankful I feel. It has been a hard week; full of tears, memories and laughter.

I am thankful...
1. For being able to know Grandpa Metternich. He will be dearly missed.
2. Lots of family time this week.
3. The many Easter Egg hunts week.
4. Buds on my lilac bush.
5. Christ IS RISEN!!!!
6. Getting caught up with a friend over lunch.
7. My neighbor who loves to iron and took time to iron my husband's shirt this week.
8. The 15 year old boys who hang out at our house; maybe we can make a difference in their lives.
9. Warmer weather.
10. All the cousins my children were able to play with this week.

I am tired and am still amazed how long this week has been. I should have more on this list however it is just not going to happen tonight. So this week I am going to try to write down all the things that I am thankful for as they happen.

Have a Blessed Week!
