We are Thankful



We are thankful for so much. We enjoyed a quiet day at home that included a wonderful "small" turkey dinner with just the 5 of us at noon. Followed by naps by all 5 of us! This evening we had a wonderful time at the Bonnema's. We were blessed with grandma Bonnema's presence after being quite ill for several weeks. The kids have enjoyed so much the "gratitude chain" this month. We have had family send us rings with what they are thankful for written on it. We will move it from the kitchen to the Christmas tree to remind us to be thankful all season long. I am so thankful that my kids understand what it means to be thankful this season. Some of the things they are thankful for are: their blankies, their bed, their house, their teachers, their daddy, snuggling with mommy...... Priceless.
"Give thanks to the Lord for He is good." Happy Thanksgiving friends.
