Thankful

There are a bunch of people who are thankful for something each day during November on Facebook. It is fun to read all of them. As for me, I am really thankful also, but it changes hourly so right now I am thankful for my kids. Ok, I am always thankful for them but right now I have been studying while they are playing with the neighbor friends because it is a snow day.

When we moved here everyone told us to get snow gear fast because at the schools as soon as the snow hits the kids have to wear full gear or they have to sit on the learning line (along the wall of the school). I didn't really listen but when we were given the warning for lake effect snow yesterday I made sure to get to the store to get some boots for the kids. They have been using them all day, in and out of the snow.



I love snow. It is so beautiful and clean.

I shoveled the driveway this morning after I pushed Kellen's car out of it. I haven't ever done the entire thing by myself and I felt so accomplished. My neighbor came and evened it out for me since he didn't think I did a good enough job, but it felt great to do something for my husband. I have decided that this last week I was too focused on my things and not enough about my husband so this week I am changing that. I've made him a delicious dinner for the past 2 nights (instead of eating leftovers like I usually make him do after a big dinner). This may not seem like much, but I know he appreciates the effort.

Anyway, this is a post that is full of my ramblings and random things but today I am thankful.
Thank you all for giving me words of encouragement after my last post. I shouldn't have vented so much but I really felt your support. Thank you.

Now I am off to drink some more hot chocolate (like I need an excuse)
Have a great "Snow" day and remember to be thankful!!
